If you want to be kept on the edge of your seat with polling data The start up company Votecastr is churning out projection numbers as they come in throughout the day.
It's working with news sites Slate and Vice.
Now normally, news outlets don't report on numbers so early because you only get a picture of the true data by the end of the day.
Many believe that if you report on how one candidate is doing well early in the morning, It could discourage people from going out later and skew the outcome.
But hey, if you want to go on a roller coaster ride of raw numbers.

On the other hand, if you'd rather not deal with the nitty-gritty, nail-biting drama.

And if you need some relief from the election stress, perhaps Firefox has the best solution to ease your nerves.
The web browser partnered with the San Francisco Zoo and Gardens And it is live streaming the red panda exhibit all day on the Firefox Facebook page.
Because if there's one issue this country can all agree on, it's that we need more red panda camps.
