How to watch the meetings of presidential electors across the states

This year’s convening of the Electoral College in fifty states and the District of Columbia should be relatively uneventful. But they’ll also be mostly closed to the public due to the pandemic. States, however, commonly stream these proceedings. If you’d like to watch them, I’m compiling the timelines of when the meetings occur with links to live streams where available. Please note that if a state has an * beside it, it means that’s the presumed time of the meeting, not yet confirmed (or confirmed by me, at least!). (C-SPAN will cover some of these. More details from Election Law at Ohio State. More links at the Washington Post.)
