Where would you recommend us non-UKers watch the election results?

I've checked the bbc website but they barely mention the election at all! Is there somewhere I can stream live?

1. It's also on C-Span 3 in the US starting at 4:55 Eastern

You should be able to stream that from the C-Span website.

2. Is this accessable to you?

I've never felt the need to try it from the US and I'm home (oh, how I dearly wish I was still an ocean away from this island...) now, so I wouldn't know....

ITV 1, 9.55pm GMT.

I know that BBC iPlayer cannot broadcast out of the UK due to TV License restrictions, but I'm not sure if ITV will work.

4. BBC?

Ummm, there's loads on the BBC. They've been doing live text updating on the election for the last 3 weeks.
Not a lot will happen till after 10 o clock here, then after 11 results will start coming in.

5. Try these

BBC news website has the election results on the front page. Fivethirtyeight.com are live-blogging as the results come in. You might also want to try C-SPAN.
