Recommendations for those of us without television?
I'll be headed home soon to settle in for then evening. My 240 square foot cabin is several hundred feet up out of the valley. It has DSL, but no television and only spotty radio reception.

What links do people suggest for getting election returns on line?

It has several choices. However, today for some odd reason, the MSNBC is directing to CNN.
