Mainly FOX, will probably flick over to CNN every now and then, although my main source will be the Internet.

If CNN and Dish Network reach an agreement to continue broadcasting CNN, then CNN.  If not, I'll watch MSNBC, Fox News, and I'll check out Al Jazeera America.  I'll get my local election results from the State Board of Elections website.

CNN, as the other two cable channels are filled with insufferable hacks.

As far as I know Fox's election coverage isn't that biased. They have Bret Baier, Shepard Smith, and Bill Hemmer cover the raw data. However they do allow many R's to do commentary. MSNBC's coverage is straight up biased, bashing Republican candidates wherever they come up, with hosts like Matthews, O'Donnell, and Maddow covering all the calls.

I have my DVD Recorder (with built-in hardrive function) and my cable DVR set up to record coverage from all of the major cable news channels (C-SPAN, Fox News, MSNBC and CNN) in addition to local coverage on NJTV and News 12. I am going to have fun dubbing all of the coverage to DVD+R discs over the coming weeks.

As it turns out, I'll probably watch FOX and local news coverage since FOX's coverage starts earliest. If they are too annoying (which is probably likely by around 9) I'll switch to CNN.

I never watch TV news normally and on election nights most of my time after 8:30 or 9:00 will be spent on the internet furiously navigating between a dozen tabs. But I'll have C-Span playing in the background, I like them and their coverage is the most innocuous. I usually find FOX, MSNBC, and CNN totally unwatchable on election nights Tongue I'll check in for their graphics though a few times.

Though tbh, if the night looks really good for Republicans, I may have to switch over to MSNBC Wink

I didn't really like MSNBC's new graphics, they were much better in 2010/2012. The enormous gaudy picture whenever they called a race for someone was just odd looking.

I actually kind of liked it for some reason.
