How to find which bars in a given area will be having election night watch parties?

Is there a best site where one can look up which bars, locations, etc. in your area will be having election night watch parties?

(was going to ask something specific to my area, but figured others would be wondering the same thing.)

Response by poster: Actually, I'd rather avoid large partisan parties, as I have friends from all over the spectrum, and a neutral "get some drinks and watch it on the big screen with my pals" is quite a bit more preferable.

Unfortunately, in my searches, all I can find are the above.

(I suspect it'll come down to just calling local places and asking what their plans are, but like I said, thought it might be a question asked enough to warrant being a full on AskMe post.)

If you have an alt weekly in your town they usually will cover this kind of thing. But yes, most bars, mine included, are pretty partisan.
