The LGBT guide to Election Night 2012 (Moment of truth will be at 10:00 p.m. Central Time)

MOMENT OF TRUTH | If all goes well, we’ll learn that President Barack Obama has won a second term at about 10 p.m. Dallas time.


It’s a close race for the White House, a close race for Tammy Baldwin’s bid to become the first openly gay member of the U.S. Senate, five unpredictable outcomes on marriage-related votes, and an openly gay caucus in Congress that could total either three or six by the end of the evening.

The stakes and the consequences of the results are so high that many LGBT people will be staying up late Tuesday, Nov. 6, to watch it all unfold.

The National Election Pool, a coalition of mainstream media organizations that conduct exit polling to project results, is doing things differently this year to accommodate the increase in early voting.

As a result of their modifications, the Pool says projections may trickle out more slowly this year than in the past. But this guide will give political enthusiasts some idea of when the most important results will start becoming apparent. All times are Central:

1. Thanks for that very handy guide to Tuesday night...

Here's hoping the party starts here at 6 pm CST with the returns from Virginia!

2. If I watch, it will probably be on Logo

I have lost my stomach for any of the MSM, and Current's handling of the debates (1/2 the screen a Tweet stream) turned me off.

3. I feel the same way.

BTW, Love your sig line!
