Election night party ideas

Little help here...

The wife, roommate and I are throwing an election night party and are looking for a few more ideas to keep everyone involved. Some people are die-hard politicos, some not so much. Both sides of the aisle represented.

- We're going to set up a dry-erase board w/ red and blue
- Red and blue jello shots, everyone takes a red or blue shot as each state is called
- Multiple TVs for a few different angles on coverage
- Red and blue plates (although we're looking for some politics-based food to serve)

Any other ideas?

 

Champagne for the winning side to celebrate with, hard liquor for the losing side to console themselves with.

Ya' covered.

 

Political trivia during the down moments?

Read passages from Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72 in the hour leading up to the party?

 

Take some ideas from this borderline NSFW website:
http://votergasm.com/

 

Umm, pretty sure that web site is for some sort of sex parties, at least that's what I gathered before getting nervous about being on the site at work.

Oh, and writing_irish, there is a votergasm election night party near you, if you are interested.

 

LIBRUHL MEDIA!!!

 

Don't people work Wednesday?

 

We're having a party, but it won't matter because none of us work until 3 p.m. the next day.

 

Can't believe somebody's been paying to hold on to that address for four years without actually updating the site since the 2004 election.

 

Mooseburgers and plenty of red meat for the righties. Arugala, brie lattes and white wine for the lefties.

 

Oh, fuck that. This lefty drinks Samuel Adams beer (from America's biggest domestically-owned brewery ) and eats steak.

 

Not this lefty. I don't like Sam Adams or steak.
