A CNN reporter asked an elderly woman about her choice on Election Day in a video that’s now making the rounds online.

The reporter asked the woman if she’s excited for the first woman president and she replied with a “No!”

A man standing behind her, presumably her husband, replied: “I am.”

The woman was identified as Jackie Krachala of North Strabane Township, Pennsylvania. She voted for Republican Donald Trump while her husband cast his ballot for Hillary Clinton, a Democrat.

The man said he’s voting for Clinton “because she’s the best of the two” choices.
