I have been look­ing for the eas­i­est way to under­stand what is going to hap­pen tonight as the polls begin to close.  These are the resources I am mar­shalling to my defense:

  • Run­down of what to look for tonight — Tae­gan Goddard’s awe­some sched­ule for tonight, when the polls close, what to look for each hour, and what it all will mean.  This is by far the best thing I have found (bet­ter than Josh Marshall’s, because it is shorter, by a lot), and I will be print­ing it out.
  • Google’s elec­tion results map — Hard to know if it will be help­ful until the results start com­ing in, but I hope it will be a good place to go to bask in the Blue glow.
  • All pur­pose drink — So many ways to enjoy your alcohol.

I am also lin­ing up my favorite polit­i­cal blogs (warn­ing, par­ti­san­ship ahead!) so I can roll in the hay, as it were, and enjoy, sweet, sweet revenge.  And, you know, all the heal­ing and stuff the coun­try needs, etc.  

That Prince­ton Band thing is an inside joke I will never explain.  Sorry.

    I’d been fol­low­ing FiveThir­tyEight for a few weeks and was feel­ing highly con­fi­dent come elec­tion night. Still, I’m amazed by how spot-on they were. Truly incred­i­ble to com­pare the two elec­toral maps — their pro­jec­tion and the offi­cial results.
