November 04 US elections: Judgement DayPosted by Laura Snook, head of news
What's happening:
It's Judgement Day in the US elections. Today, 130million of 220million registered US voters are expected to swarm the polls to decide who will be the 44th US president - one of the highest turnouts in US history. By breakfast, queues has already formed outside polling stations across the States.
What people are saying:
As befits a campaign that has been waged primarily online, much of the dialogue about the election is taking place on the internet - the main political battlefield of the noughties. Journalists, voters, even the candidates themselves are using the likes of Twitter, You Tube and blogs to dissect and discuss events in real time as they unfold.
Why we should give a damn:
The result is a dynamic global conversation on a perhaps unprecedented scale. For the next 24 hours, I'll be listening in on and taking part in that conversation - and bringing you the very best of it right here. In addition to this live blog, you can also follow me on Twitter. Got your coffee? You're going to need it...
