As polls begin to close Tuesday in a pair of off-year election races in Virginia and New Jersey, as well as the mayor’s race in New York, cable and broadcast networks are covering the results with shades of 2020.
That is when the presidential race delivered blockbuster ratings. A year later, viewership is down — by a lot — across CNN, Fox News and MSNBC. Much of the coverage today focused on the Virginia governor’s race and the implication that Democrats may very well lose the statehouse, for the first time since 2009. And even though President

CNN, with a clock counting down to its coverage, is back with the magic wall, while MSNBC plans to feature Steve Kornacki returning to the big board.
The broadcast networks may interrupt programming for results, but they were promoting coverage of the night on their streaming platforms.
