Likely FOX, but I will be watching it with friends.  But, they're Republicans, so probably FOX still.

I'll be switching between CNN and MSNBC, but it'll be on CNN most of the night

MSNBC with occasional checks on CNN and of course FOX if/when it's called for Clinton.

It depends on where the watch party will be - that is still TBD. If it I had it at my place like 2014, I'd have MSNBC on the main screen and Fox on another screen. I'm moving in a couple of weeks though, so I'll probably be at a friend's place, so mostly Fox with some flipping to MSNBC.

If I go to the county Dems watch party, it'll be MSNBC no doubt

If I stay home... definitely CNN.

It would be my choice, but we can't get MSNBC unless you stream it.

Probably ABC News 24 (Australian network for those at home), though I have NFI who's feed most Australian networks will pick up.

I don't know yet. I'll be on a public event at the American-German Institute in Stuttgart. Likely Germany's first television channel (ARD). Their election covering four years ago was fine.

Depends on whether I go to school or not.
If I don't go to school on the day, probably CNN.
If I do, probably find an MSNBC stream.

MSNBC.  Brian Williams and Rachel Maddow are the Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn of our times.

CNN

I get nothing else on my TV here and their coverage is pretty good (hopefully they don't use the crappy colours from the primary though).

I'll change channels variously. It'll be on CNN most of the time though.

However I do feel for anyone watching this at a bar.

Whichever station I can get a live feed online from, here in the UK (think of me, I never get any sleep). Has tended to be CNN in one window, with DKos Elections open on another, and Twitter on another. Would be good if I can get an MSNBC feed, though, as the Williams/Maddow combination would be terrific.

I'll probably start with MSNBC, but bounce around from station to station.

I will tune to Fox News when the election is called for Hillary Clinton, just to see the reaction on the channel.

I'm not at home so I won't be able to watch CNN on the TV; a couple of bars on campus are having watch parties but who wants to be with British Students when the US election is Tongue
