Gambit and WWL-TV: liveblogging the elections
Posted by Kevin Allman on Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 10:57 PM
Tomorrow night, Tuesday, Nov. 4, beginning at 6:30 p.m., Gambit Weekly will be liveblogging the election returns from the newsroom at WWL-TV, providing up-to-the-minute information about presidential, state and local races, along with Gambit political editor and WWL election analyst Clancy DuBos.
The station will begin its schedule of national cut-ins at 6:30, and at 8 p.m., when the polls close, WWL sister station WUPL will go live with reports and analysis of all the national, state, and local elections. We'll be liveblogging along with them from the newsroom and the election set, and giving Gambit readers a picture of how Channel 4 puts it all together.
Oh, yes, and we'll be taking your questions -- serious and silly -- and answering them on the blog as time permits. You can leave 'em in the comments below. (We've already had our first query about Lee Zurik's eyebrows, and he's been a good sport about that in the past, but we're hoping for some new material.)
So visit www.blogofneworleans.com on election night beginning at 6:30 p.m. for live online coverage of Election Night. Suggestions for drinking games are welcome.

I love, love, love that the Gambit is doing this. Also, really nice to see the Gambit on Twitter.

Gambit is the first local publication to be helmed by someone who truly understands the social media age. Fantastic job Kevin! I'm always up for some good analysis of the ground Obama has gained in Louisiana, seemingly against all odds, and how that might contribute to any perception of a "mandate" if he wins and takes office.
