This election day, there's a lot of information flying around, but thankfully, we have Map Daddy Steve Kornacki to help guide us through it!

Since 2020, out MSNBC journalist Steve Kornacki has been every gay's favorite election analyst with his maps, expert insights, rolodex of election trivia, and his hot and nerdy good looks.

Now that there's another presidential election, gays across America will once again tune into the news and watch their favorite nerd break down the election results.

Kornacki is known mostly for his breakdowns of polling and analysis of election numbers, often appearing on NBC's Meet the Press and other shows since the 2014 midterm elections.

He came out in an essay for Salon in 2011, saying "I've read stories from people who say they always knew they were attracted to the same sex, or that they figured it out at a young age. I'm not one of them. I had practically no idea until one night in my sophomore year of high school."

In 2020, he became a political superstar for his segments where he would break down polling data, demographics, historical information, and predictions on virtual maps, leading many to affectionately refer to him as "Map Daddy."

In 2020, he even made the list of People's Sexiest Men, coming in at number 13.

"Never before have khakis and a striped tie gotten so many hot under the (Oxford) collar," People wrote about Kornacki at the time. "The MSNBC journalist's tireless coverage tracking the long post-election day vote tallying process earned him the title of 'Chartthrob' - with celebrity fans from Chrissy Teigen to Leslie Jones - and even caused a significant spike in Gap's khaki sales."

Starting at 3pm PST, Kornacki's coverage will be available for all to watch as the Kornacki Cam goes live on YouTube! Make sure you check it out below!
