Election Night Coverage

Planning on listening or watching as the election results roll in? Tired of the same old talking heads? Allow us to suggest a few alternative sources for election night coverage:

1) Democracy Now!

Democracy Now! will be doing a special five-hour broadcast on November 4th from 07:00PM–12:00AM ET to bring you the 2008 election results as they come in.

The program will include live coverage of the results as the polls close, on-the-ground reports from across the country, reactions from across the globe, and running in-depth analysis and commentary from a wide range of guests you won’t get anywhere else.

On November 5th, the morning after, Democracy Now! expands to a two-hour broadcast from 08:00AM–10:00AM ET to provide complete coverage of the election outcome.

2) Air America

3) Maron vs. Seder (for a more humorous approach)

4) NovaM Radio Network

On Election Night, Brad Friedman of The BRAD BLOG will be anchoring Nova M Radio's coverage from 3:00 p.m. to at least Midnight (and possibly later), PST. That coverage will be not of the horserace, but of the track conditions, with stories of disenfranchisement, voter suppression, long lines, last minute legal rulings, any challenges that arise, etc. The networks and cable won't give any attention to these issues, but you know we will! We'll have up-to-the-minute information and a number of live guests. (from velvetrevolution.us).

If it's flashy graphics you crave, then why not just tune in to some election night TV program, put the TV on mute, and crank one of the above programs up?
