CNN Election Night: The Empire State Building Will Determine The Winner

“…the iconic beacon of Gotham will be exclusively displaying the race to 270 electoral votes with a vertical LED illuminated ‘meter’ on its spire—blue for President Obama, and red for former Governor Romney.”
Still not clear on that? It’s OK, neither are we–but we do know that the entire “spire” will turn either red or blue once the winner has been declared.
