I think it is where New Hampshire has those towns that do midnight voting. And They have like 10 voters, all of which have voted.

I didn't know it was even legal to release any results for public dissemiantion until the polls closed, but you're right, so I guess it is:

FOX News on the TV is about all I'll pay attention to, other than Drudge. There are too many places to choose from.

I have become somewhat addicted to flipping back and forth between Fox and MSNBC.

If Romney wins, I'll probably watch a lot of MSNBC for a couple days, just gotta see the dejection of Sharpton, Matthews, Shultz, Maddow, etc. That would be a thrill up MY leg!

That's the only thing I miss after dropping satellite TV. I rather watch news than surf it.

[/quote]That would be a good reason to. Seeing Chris Matthews cry would make me laugh. Well, the whole bunch of them
would be crying for some time. Racism, sexism, those Republican cheaters. I can imagine that channel having a collective
stroke. I might join you after thinking about it. :D

[/quote]I don't think there is any law about one way or the other but I seem to recall that most news organizations agreed to hold results until after the polls closed in, at least, the western states.

I lived in the Seattle area back when the peanut farmer won and the networks were announcing him as the winner (and he may even have made his victory speech) quite a while before the polls even closed in Washington and I think there was quite an outcry from Washington, California, etc which caused the networks to change their policies.

I want Obama to lose for all the right reasons. But, I wanna see some suffering from a few. Good suggestion on watching MSNBC.

Frankly, I think I'm going to head over to Nashville Armory to do a little plinking with a brand new Ruger SR22 I just picked up last week then hang out a bit in the lounge for a few minutes to see what they are saying on the news before heading home - a little practice seems like a good idea no matter who wins, albeit perhaps for different reasons. ;)

Politico will spin the results like they had it right, all along. They will report the results okay, though.
The networks will get the results out quicker, I think. I hate refreshing pages all the time.

Yeah, this one sucks. Stays way behind several others.
