Besides DU, what's one website to monitor to know what's really happening in the elections

Last edited Mon Nov 2, 2020, 01:37 AM - Edit history (3)

for the next 50 hours or so?

538? CNN? Certainly not Politico or The Hill!

On edit: Here are the suggestions we have from the DU family of websites to monitor for the next two days. I'll keep editing this if folks think there are other good ones. I just wanted to have compendium of relatively trustworthy sites for us to keep on hand through Election Day:

538: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-election-forecast/?cid=rrpromo
CNN: https://www.cnn.com/election/2020/presidential-polls
TPM:https://talkingpointsmemo.com/
NY Times: https://www.nytimes.com/news-event/2020-election (note: live election blog doesn't appear online yet)

Another vote for the NYT - their live tracker is usually good.

I will now.

I'll wait a few hours and then edit the OP to post links to the recommended ones so folks can quickly find them over the next two days (and hopefully not longer!).

I'm fed up with the tripe on Politico and The Hill! These are very welcome.

Thanks to all.
