Your Complete Guide to Election Night 2015

Most political junkies have already mentally moved on to those other elections starting in early 2016. But while there may not be any federal elections left in 2015, there is no shortage of action in the states, where the real policy is made. November 3 is Election Day in 32 states and will decide the fates of governorships, ballot measures, mayors, constitutional offices, legislative seats, and more. Some highlights? How about the attempted comebacks of two Michigan Tea Party representatives who had an affair (with each other), Ohio's ballot questions on redistricting and marijuana legalization, and the Lance Berkman–opposed transgender-rights bill in Houston?

To help guide those who haven't been following these hyper-local campaigns but are interested in following them on election night, I've created this viewer's guide for Tuesday night. Sorted by poll-closing times (all times Eastern), it's a state-by-state rundown of what's on the ballot in 2015.
