Just wondered which would be the best coverage. Fox News and MSNBC are perhaps a bit too partisan.

Must admit I don't have much clue about American media. There's always BBC, but somehow it makes more sense to follow the coverage of a native station.

Networks don't release vote counts till the polls close in California etc so as not to affect the voting there.

Carter gave an early concession speech - when lots of Californians still hadn't voted - and it killed a lot of Reps as Dems didn't turn out in the evening after that.

But CNN CBS NBC will all be equally bad. Flip a coin.

The excuses and mudslinging will be very petty, childish, unprofessional and hugely entertaining, in a sort of warped rubber-necking way.

Other hold ups will be caused by conflicting voting procedures.
Then the lawsuits brought by the aggrieved losing party because of all these aforementioned situations. I just hope the Supreme Court doesn't get involved in it again.

You are correct:

Fox is extreme to the right.

MSNBC leans left for sure.

CNN seems to have rolled to the right.

Daily Show with Jon Stewart will be brilliant, certainly left wing bias.
