Even as a Liberal I couldn't stand MSNBC's coverage in 2010. I wish they just had 'Number's People' on instead of party hacks. So I may see what kind of coverage BBC News has. I may mute the TV and listen to the Politics channel on SIRIUS radio.

I like MSNBC's graphics, CNN's number crunchers, and my local news with local race results.

Probably MSNBC.

MSNBC. I like John King on CNN but the graphics and the liberal reaction pull me into MSNBC. I'll tape CNN though too and watch that days later.

CNN, because that's the only thing I have over here.

I have BBC, Bloomberg and AlJazeera too, but I don't think they show it (nor would I watch it).

Plus, CNN isn't too bad really.

Exactly my answer.

I'll switch in and out of CNN and MSNBC. I might to to an election night party, and I might go down to Fort Lauderdale and watch the results with my great-aunt, great-uncle, and grandma.

I do know that I am getting up at 6:00 AM and going down the street to vote. I don't want to waste anytime in lines.

CNN. The rest of their channel may have gone to sh*t, but they're election coverage is still good.

Fox if the results favor Democrats; MSNBC if it really does turn out to be a Republican wave election. Most likely I'll use the internet though.

Probably flip back and forth between CNN and MSNBC, and I'll also have a bunch of sites open online: CNN, Atlas Forum (to observe reaction by forum members of the political party that isn't doing well), AOSHQDD. If the democrats manage to keep their senate majority or get back the gubernatorial majority, I'll head over to FOX for a bit to see if someone tries to get their decision desk to take back the call.

MSNBC has the best graphics and smartest people (Chuck Todd).

MSNBC had better graphics for 2008. I don't like the basic blue.

CNN, as I usually do. I'll probably be checking here, CNN and various other websites as well.

They don't do that anymore - that was just a brief stint in 2008.

i'll probably have to get an MSNBC live stream since I don't get any cable news channels going on.
