Teen who waved off man in viral election party video: 'It's just my dad... chill'
The internet's biggest post-Election Day mystery has been solved.
If you're on Twitter, you've likely seen this video making the rounds today:
TWITTER please find this girl I have to know what that guy said to herpic.twitter.com/CopENdncqx

And of course, it didn't take long to find her: the girl in question is Ellie Delgado, a senior at Lamar High School in Houston. The video was taken at what appears to be an Election Day party for Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas), who was elected to Texas 2nd Congressional District yesterday. But those who speculated on Twitter the man in the video said something to offend the girl are wrong: according to Delgado, the man in the video is her dad "talking about a woman he wants to date," Delgado tweeted.

Now that we know the truth, it makes so much sense - what teenager hasn't waved off her dad in a full-on "boy, bye" after he made a bad joke?
