Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s campaign announced their plans for election night — and they include a giant glass metaphor.
Clinton will address supporters at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in Manhattan, a venue that has a glass ceiling.
Twitter users were quick to note the symbolism.
Just in: Hillary Clinton will hold her election night event at Javits Center in Manhattan.

Hillary Clinton will hold her Election Night party at the Javits Center in NYC, per @jmpalmieri. (The space, notably, has a glass ceiling!)

Others characterized the metaphor as a bit too on the nose.

Some saw the metaphor as fitting.

Clinton has stated that electing a woman as president would shatter the “highest and hardest glass ceiling.”
