I live in Canada, don’t have cable, and have a wedding rehearsal tonight. Anyone know if I’ll be able to watch it online tomorrow? ---

I’m sure you’ll be able to find it online, prolly right after the live broadcast concludes. I’ll come back and post a link if no1 else does. ---

You couldn’t force me to watch this, but it’s gotta be entertaining for any other country. For us it’s a night of face palming and plenty of :smack:. There’s also online blogs summing up answers on [cnn.com](http://cnn.com) and [foxnews.com](http://foxnews.com) ---

But I don’t have cable or satellite, and I would much rather see it unspoiled, even if after the fact, rather than read any news coverage before I see it. I hope there will be videos later as \*\*Bo \*\*says. ---

> [@Shaggy\_Z](#): > > I live in Canada, don’t have cable, and have a wedding rehearsal tonight. > > Anyone know if I’ll be able to watch it online tomorrow? Unfortunately not. The current primitive state of technology does not allow for the video recording of political events. What is this online you speak of? ---
