Decided to brew an all grain dry Irish stout tonight. Mashed at 152 and mashed out at 170. This was my second brew in 2 weeks and was the smoothest brew day yet. The plate chiller got it to 88 degrees so I decided to wait until tomorrow morning to pitch the yeast as its late and I have to_work at 7 am. Is it OK if it sits in the primary overnight until I pitch tomorrow?
 
It's not the ideal situation but it is OK to do.
As long as the primary vessel is clean and sanitized, the risk is minimal.

Did you make a starter?

To me, that would be the ideal scenario here. Pitching the correct number of healthy and active yeast, so that they get going immediately before any other organism gets a dominant foothold.
