It's been going on all day as it is: election coverage. Obviously you have your choice to get this news all night: CBS, ABC, PBS, CNN, MSNBC, and probably the best news source, Comedy Central. For all other decent viewing options see below.
And if elections aren't the equivalent of polling and monitoring then there's this recent bit about a challenge to the Nielsen ratings system. Looks like TNS Media Research is going to go head to head with Nielsen by teaming up with DirectTV to get 100,000 households monitored with second-by-second device-monitoring data vs. Nielsen't 12,000 self-monitored households. More competition in this area can only be a good thing as the value of Nielsen's small data pool has been questioned for decades. Tivo's also throwing their hat into the ring, more on that later.
