Due to five hour time difference, I'm not liveblogging the Massachusetts special election count for the next few hours.
So here are some good places for readers who live in more favourable timezones or who are prepared for an all-nighter:
Fivethirtyeight Especially because it has a live Twitter feed.
If you're a sadist and the Democrats are losing, much wailing and gnashing of the teeth here. ;-)
N.B. Expect Nate Silver, who runs 538 to get inside news from the Democratic camp.
Drudge Report is updating the count on its main page. Seems pretty quick.
RealClearPolitics (conservative) looks to have a neat live blog going. If you're a Democrat and want to see GOP fans cry, this could be a good place to start if your woman wins.
There doesn't seem to be an official results page on the Commonwealth of Massachsetts website yet, but I think it will be on this page or linked to it.
Intrade appears to have crashed, leaving people who wished to make last minute bets potentially in the lurch. If it comes back on tonight, check to see if the contract moves below 70% for Scott Brown or above 30% for Martha Coakley. That would suggest that the Democrats might pull off an incredible escape. We'll see.
UPDATE: Barring something very odd, I'm calling this a Republican gain.
