: : WGN-TV to expand Election Night coverage : : WGN-Ch. 9 has reversed an earlier decision and will pre-empt its CW prime-time schedule in favor of beginning its Election Night coverage at 7 p.m., two hours earlier than first planned. Mark Suppelsa will co-anchor with Micah Materre, who's filling in for Allison Payne. : : Cable's WGN America will simulcast WGN's coverage on Election Night, also beginning at 7 p.m. : : In Chicago, Channel 9 also plans to begin its morning newscast on Wednesday at 4:30 a.m., a half-hour early. : : : (Phil Rosenthal, Chicago Tribune) : Damnit. I want my 90210! omg : I wonder if this had anything to do with Allison Payne's decision to step down (ie: She didn't feel up to doing the dreaded hours and hours of election coverage banter..)
