Any DirecTV subscribers? check out channel 347 - ElectionHQ
For the news junkie in all of us...
DirecTV splits the screen on ch 347 broadcasting four news channels at once along with a column on the left side of the screen running live data updated by Associated Press.
Just found it. I'm psyched. All that and DU opened on the iPad...I'm getting light-headed with anticipation. God, I love Election Day!
A special Mix channel pulls the news together, so you have a full view of what’s going on. And you can get additional information as you watch through an interactive experience featuring live election results for the presidential race as well as Senate and House contests and key ballot initiatives.
