Charter Communications will produce special coverage of Election Night that will air on its streaming channel Spectrum News Plus and simulcast on C-SPAN, the company announced on Monday.

The special, called “Decision 2024: Election Night in America,” will be available through the Spectrum News app, as well as through the free, ad-supported streaming channel Spectrum News Plus (stylized as Spectrum News+), which is currently available through Xumo Play. Charter says the Spectrum News app will be unlocked to non-subscribers that evening, so they can stream Spectrum News Plus through that platform if they prefer.

On pay TV, the Spectrum News Election Night special will simulcast in its entirety on C-SPAN 2, which is available on partner cable and satellite platforms throughout the country and on DirecTV Stream.

The Spectrum News Plus Election Night special will be helmed by national anchor Josh Robin and Spectrum News NY1 political reporter Ayana Harry, who will offer comprehensive reporting and analysis on the race for the White House and key regional and local political competitions. Spectrum News D.C. Bureau reporter Cassie Semyon will report from the campaign headquarters of Vice President Kamala Harris, while national political reporter Taylor Popielarz will report from the campaign headquarters of former President Donald Trump.

Spectrum News national anchor Alex Cohen, NY1 Political Director Bob Hart and anchor Robert Guaderrama will be on hand to discuss that evening’s results and the balance of power in Congress. Correspondents will also provide live updates from the battleground states and key Congressional races in Florida, Ohio, Wisconsin, New York, Texas, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Michigan and Nevada, as well as the gubernatorial race in North Carolina.
