The clock is counting down the hours until the highly anticipated results of the 2024 presidential election are revealed.
While a near 75 million Americans have already voted across the country, millions more are expected to vote on Tuesday, Nov. 5, choosing between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. The race is already being featured across numerous channels and streaming services.
With countless options to gather all your Election Day updates, where is the best place to gather all the news throughout the day and evening? For your Election Day needs, Salon narrows down your options. (Although only one place can boast having Steve Kornacki and his big board.)
Here are some of the places you should keep an eye on for round-the-clock coverage of the results. Down below is how and where to watch election coverage on Tuesday:
