When I was in college, my fraternity room mate and I, watched the 76 Presidential returns with a bottle of Contreau. Don't have any idea why we picked that but I have kept the tradition going forward and every two years watch the results while sipping on the orange flavored liquor.
Usually at home with multiple devices and flipping around the channels, including Fox News. I tend to have a small group at least for presidential elections. I usually block off the next morning expecting I will be up late and little ragged and hungover the next day. I like vodka, but red wine is usually my drink of choice at night.
When the liberals are most likely to win, I watch Fox. When the conservatives are likely to win, I watch MSNBC. I like to see who the real professionals are and who are the partisan hacks posing as journalists. You get to see who is who when their team loses.
I actually agree. Steve Kornacki on MSNBC is a good example of a competent professional. Don't know if it's still the case, the Fox News infotainment types have been known to disagree with the networks on professional analysts. I do not watch Fox but if I recall some of its infotainment types were pissed off when the network's analysts called Arizona for Biden in 2020 and Karl Rove who was a Fox commentator at the time refused to believe that Obama won Ohio and, in effect, the election when Fox's analysts called that state for Barack.
I rarely drink. But I think I'm going to need a good amount of alcohol for election day this year. I'm not sure what channel I'll watch. I don't like any of the cable news channels. Is there a channel that isn't Fox, MSNBC, CNN, or one of the other crazy Republican "news" channels that will carry the election?
I had heard on a podcast that Bret Baier, supposedly one of the “good guys” had recommended that Fox News reverse their AZ call for Biden because Trump was not pleased. Bret Baier Wanted Fox to Rescind Arizona Call, ‘Put It Back’ in Trump’s ‘Column’
