Swing State Project has a handy color-coded map of poll closing times.

Indiana and Kentucky close at 6 p.m., which is a travesty of democracy. God forbid people have to work a 9-6 shift.

So at 3 p.m. my time we'll start getting results. Indiana and Kentucky have six hot House races that will give us an early glimpse into how Democrats do tonight -- IN-02, IN-08, IN-09, KY-02, KY-03, and KY-04.

At 7 p.m. ET, polls close in Florida (several hot races), Georgia (two of the GOP's only three House pickup opportunities), South Carolina (nothing much), Virginia (big one), New Hampshire (two hot House races), and Vermont (a hot House race and Sen. Bernie).

At 7:30 p.m. ET, polls close in Ohio, North Carolina, and West Virginia.

And at 8 p.m. ET, all hell breaks loose.

Update on a completely unrelated matter -- here's a lesson in how NOT to set up a photo shoot if your name is "Charlie Bass":

Update II: Scratch Indiana. A judge has extended hours in several precincts by two hours because of lots of problems.
