I have to work Tuesday night until 8:30 PM Pacific time - does anyone know of a good website I can access on my Iphone to check votes? I will go stir crazy!

Thoughts anyone? Thanks so much! I have been watching/reading Nate's charts for months now and we are down to the wire now..

Change has come

It will probably be limited to paid members though. I would try MSNBC or CNN mobile apps.

and from different sources. the media may still have reason to claim it's going close if it isn't just to keep people tuned in.

at least on DU we can get discussion of what each of the numbers mean and why we can or can't trust them.

but you are right about how use might be limited because of so many people who will come on. i just hope it doesn't go down for a long period of time.

I searched "2012 Election Results" and found several free apps. I chose the NYT because in the "All Sources" section is a link to Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight.
