Our family is planning to watch the election coverage together on Tuesday night. What do you recommend we watch? We’d like some good quality national coverage without getting bombarded by red politics. We don’t have cable TV, so are limited to streaming services.
This just sounds stressful.
Why not make batch of mulled wine, watch a film, wake up and check Reuters on Wednesday?
The outcome won’t differ. What does election coverage offer that is insightful and useful?

Mainly an excuse to stay up past our bedtimes.
There are gonna be so many lawsuits this election we won’t know the outcome till Jan 7
None. First of all, watching news is far worse then reading it in terms of how you guard against subjective influence.
Second, who cares. It’s exhausting. It’s toxic. What happens will happen and we’ll see the news later. I think last time it even took a couple days.
I’ll probably see the result without effort the next day, say “huh,” and go on with my life.

Steve Kornacki, the MSNBC data guy, is pretty freaking stellar.
PBS has excellent live coverage. It might be free on YouTube but you can access all of PBS’s videos stuff by donating to them. It’s a bit of an odd process because you donate to your local PBS but their streaming service is consolidated.
NPR also has good coverage if you want to play a board game or something while still following the insanity.
