The morning’s coverage was led by Josh Elliott, Vladimir Duthiers and Reena Ninan, but as the day continues, several discussions are set to take place between reporters and political specialists. Correspondents Major Garrett and Nancy Cordes will be stationed at Trump HQ and Clinton’s Javits Center base respectively. The network will provide “comprehensive coverage and analysis” that kicks off for the evening at 7 p.m. Eastern, with CBS correspondents and experts including Scott Pelley, Norah O’Donnell, John Dickerson, Gayle King, Charlie Rose, Elaine Quijano and Bob Schieffer.
Correspondent DeMarco Morgan and CBS News elections director Anthony Salvanto will be providing reports and analysis on the latest election totals throughout the night, running all the way down the ballot to local seats.
Back in 2012, CBS’ election night viewership ranked third behind NBC and ABC, with an 8.4 million average, bounding ahead of FOX’s 4.9 million fourth place rank. Viewership over the past few elections has dropped universally over the past decade, but with streaming services and social media, it’s now easier to access election results than ever before.
