Save everything! Screen shots! Canvass Reports! Exit Poll Data!
I hate to be a stick in the mud but this isn't over until it's officially over. The last time we celebrated the night of an election we awoke to a nightmare. This time, let's make sure if we do wake up to a nightmare we have saved up as much evidence as possible. Screen shots of exit polls... downloads of canvass reports... early election results... anything and everything. Fill up those hard drives with data just in case... It looks good right now and I am truly excited but our work is just beginning. Grab it all and save it and hopefully we'll be able to delete it all tomorrow.

2. If you can't do a screen shot just save the page...
create a folder called election data....

click on file in FireFox...

Then click Save Page As... in the new directory.

It's not as good as a screenshot but it's better than nothing.

3. Just use Grab. It's in your Utilities folder.
Get the page in Firefox, open Grab, press Command Z, and click.

5. One way I know
hit Printscreen. Then open photoshop. Create a new file. Ctrl-V to paste. And then flatten layer and save. Done.
