no election results until 10PM Eastern????

The CBC says we wont know anything until 10PM Eastern. Can anyone confirm that? As if that will hold in the Internet age... MINUTES LATER: Ok, simmer down. I actually read the whole thing.

CBC Radio and CBC TV live election specials will begin 30 minutes before the polls close in each broadcast area. CBC Newsworld's live election special will begin across the country at 9 p.m. EST. To conform to the law, a blackout will be in effect in B.C. and the Yukon from 6:30 p.m. PST until the poll close there at 7 p.m.

So the results wont be available on news websites, but TV is ok because of blackouts. Unless you have digital cable or satellite...I think.
