What I'm Watching - Good Election Resources

Note: this is a post recovered from my old blog, before it died of an insufficient backup. Any comments/trackbacks on it have not been brought over, but can be seen with the original. The date is that of the original posting.

Of course, I'm a political junkie, so I'm watching multiple sites. Here they are:

CNN's Election Summary - In one page, graphical and text indicators of who has won which states, what electoral vote count and popular vote count and percentage; plus Senate, House and gubernatorial changes.

Election Projection's results page - Great place to track results against poll expectations.

MegaPundit's summary - A tabular representation of percentage votes by state, with percentage of precincts reporting in. (This is useful for knowing how certain the results are for a given state. Even if it's called, it should be remembered that rural and urban areas vote differently, and urban votes come in first, so close states can swing even after they are called.)

InstaPundit and VodkaPundit for commentary.

The Command Post for multi-source news extracts.

US Election Atlas for turnout figures.

I'm also listening to Fox News on the TV.
