They do the best job of walking you through important counties and how they went previously, where they are at, what that could mean etc…

Yep it’s just facts and numbers

Only downside is they are slower to officially call than other places so you feel “behind” while watching

We've already told you how much we love John King's monitor skills. What more do you want?

People on here are very objective.

CNN does a very good job covering elections.

Everything else, not so much.

One of the only nice things I'll say about CNN is their election night coverage. And while they are "slow" to call they want to be 100% sure they don't mis-call a state which I do really respect when it comes to elections.

The host opposite King is trying to ease their viewers into the reality that trumps going to win. Just asked King what it means that Trump is doing better with African Americans and Hispanics.

John King is objectively fantastic at this. He’s got a real talent for this without a doubt.

I love John King but his random "Trump insulted women the last week of the campaign" shite is insane.

It's a shame they make Fox look like a clown show.

The CNN guy is the absolute goat at election night. It's not even remotely close. Hes so smooth and his info recall is amazing

It’s so interesting seeing how just small adjustments here and there (Trump up only +3 or her down +3 in any given county from 2020) can make a massive difference.
