Another Suggestion...

Don't watch the talking heads unless you absolutely have to; at least not until after you've voted and the numbers are coming in.

And for the next elections, make sure you pick up one of these (though it takes the fun out of throwing beer bottles through the screen):
HiTV encourages people to actively show what they think of the TV programme. They can toss a soft ball around or throw it to hit the TV when s/he doesn't like the character or contents on the screen. As the ball hits the TV, the character inside the TV program will get visually distorted and scream.

The HiTV system consists of the soft ball and a signal box to process the TV signals. Sensors in the ball monitor the emotional reactions of the viewer, including patting, holding tight, or throwing the ball to TV. The signal box creates audio and visual feedbacks to the reactions, and it can be also connected to the network to share the reactions with others.
