Not a fan of CNN but John King is probably the best in the business at what he does with the election board

He's like a football announcer. He seems biased but you can tell who he wants to win.

I am fine with him not calling these races. He's giving straight stats and insight. Dies a very good job.

I reluctantly tuned in and damn he is good on that map. Works through a lot of data in a way that is not overwhelming. That CNN map is the best I’ve seen

Agreed. First election I’ve watched him and I’m a fan.

He's the last to call but he's also the most thorough. You know it for certain when he does call a state.

Been watching him all night. CNN does the best job of covering the election imo

I don't feel comfortable until they call a state, because they won't do it until its certain

Only reason I watched cnn on Election Day. Also they are really conservative with projections if it’s for trump so I won’t get my hopes up.

Absolutely. Watching for him. But also for the potential melt when it occurs

CNN has turned to shite with their commentary. But King is the GOAT and CNN coverage is superior on election night.

There is a map on The Advocate website that seems to follow his maps in real time. Has all the states results.

Best in the business. I watch the “news” once every four years and CNN is the only Channel I need.

He’s the best imo, but he has had too many “tells” tonight. The way he frames a state’s live voting status will instantly tell you who is going to him the state.

King is by far the best TV analyst when it comes to the election. He makes CNN worth watching for one night every other year.

I usually make fun of the CNN coverage because there's such a shite show. But he's done a really good job tonight and he's displayed a lot of helpful data to understand context of what he's got on the screen
