Our family is planning to watch the election coverage together on Tuesday night. What do you recommend we watch? We'd like some good quality national coverage without getting bombarded by red politics. We don't have cable TV, so are limited to streaming services.

None. First of all, watching news is far worse then reading it in terms of how you guard against subjective influence.

Second, who cares. It's exhausting. It's toxic. What happens will happen and we'll see the news later. I think last time it even took a couple days.

I'll probably see the result without effort the next day, say "huh," and go on with my life.
