1. Pillows and slippers. Duel-purpose as they can be used for both comfort and throwing at the tv in moments of stress. Sheep slippers are purely optional, but they make the whole experience a lot cuter.
2. Snacks. They don’t have to be healthy because if you’re guy loses, you might need to eat some comfort food. If he wins (and lets face it, mine seldom does), you’ll have something to celebrate with. Either way you eat something so it’s a win-win. Eating leftover chocolate from National Chocolate Day means you’re being extra patriotic.
 3. Appropriate dress and jewelry.
4. (not pictured) A viewing partner. Lucky Christopher gets to experience election night with me for the first time. The poor guy has no idea what he’s in for.
