Election resources for the weary and overloaded

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.
