My goodness the british have style....
from the live results page


"The BBC is beaming the election results live onto the side of St Stephen's Tower in central London - better known to most of us as Big Ben. If you're out and about in the capital, take a look."

5. true, of course...
but it never hurts to get excited about an election. I don't think I knew that about NBC. How cool it would have been to see Obama win in that way.
