DE radio election coverage

Any comments on the radio coverage of the election returns on the radio stations across Delaware tonight?
 
I did not listen long to either station last night, but tuned in just before WDEL's 4:30 news this morning. I expected the one minute update to tell me about the Delaware Senate and House races. Instead, Frank Gerace is telling me that a former Eagle won in NJ! Ubelievable.
 
I got my coverage online. I liked washingtonpost.com's coverage best. Fastest updates. Details of specific races all over. Great and useful graphics. And I went and got what I wanted, when I wanted it without all the repetition, inane bloviating and tired political cliches radio and TV dish out.
 
Both WDEL and WILM offered wall to wall coverage. Both stations had guests to discuss the issues, and live reports, victory/concession speeches, etc, from various places around the state. WDEL used CBS radio for the national info, WILM used Fox News Radio for their national coverage. I listened back and forth to both. Both were fine.

Didn't tune in to Channel 12 so don't know if they offered any in depth coverage of Delaware's races. They usually put more emphasis on PA and NJ races, same with WHYY-FM.
