I've been thinking about this and one reason I can understand for waiting until dark is it prevents the protestors from gaining a head of steam. If they announced it at noon the people would have most of the day to gather into mobs and get riled up.

As it is, I'm sure some are waiting for the decision before going out into the cold.

It could be the strategy ???


I would guess it was just to let people get the heck out of dodge and back to their suburbs without being stuck by traffic-stopping protesters.

Nobody wants another Reginald Denny moment, or an "almost" Reginald Denny moment where a bunch of people get run over by someone afraid of being dragged from their car.
