Should I tell my relative tonight I'm watching politics?

My relative and I don't get along when it comes to politics - to the point that we can't even watch TV together if there's something political going on. Question is - will tonight be worth watching with the voting, or will it be a snoozer that I should skip? Your answer will determine my plans (as well as my relative's).

here and a couple of other sites to make sure they did the right thing. If there are any fireworks, they'll be posted to YouTube by the time I get up tomorrow.

Was kinda funny...

Keep the viewing light with relatives. Friends you can choose, relatives? Not so much.
