After decades of battling to be first to declare winners, the networks for the first time in a Presidential race tonight will rely on the same voter survey to make their projections. By pooling their resources into one cooperative that is interviewing voters as they leave the polls in every state, ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN are saving millions of dollars apiece. The networks each paid an estimated $3 million to take part in the collective during the 1990 and 1992 elections. Nearly 100 newspapers, including The New York Times, and local stations are paying smaller sums for more limited use of the data. A Mixed Record

The Presidential race will not be decided until tomorrow, but among the networks vying for political advertising revenue, the returns are already in. The winners included ABC, NBC and CNN; the loser is CBS. The intense interest in this year's Presidential election has many more people watching television news and talk shows and has generated far more revenue from political commercials than any network executive expected before the year began.

My wife thinks it is barbaric to read a newspaper at the breakfast table, and I tell her that I need a newspaper at the table, as a shield against the truth, but starting Thursday morning I intend to reform. The great campaign of '92 is history. The champions have struck their poses, Bill Clinton as Youth, The Spirit of Tomorrow, and Ross Perot as The Man Who Means Bidness and George Bush as Not The Worst President There Ever Was, and any voter with a mind has made theirs up, and I have too. I like my guy and have for a long time and am anxious to vote for him and get him off my mind and think more about middle age, which I am in the thick of, and eat breakfast in peace. I've read and heard too much about the election and retained too little, and meanwhile have turned 50, a deep chasm. The age of 49 is part of your 40's, which abut the 30's, from which you can catch a glimpse of youth, but 50 leads in one direction, toward 65. A man wants to experience these declining years without his head stuffed with old newspapers.

Psssst! Want something really hot off the press? Mr. Newspaperman has a deal for you. The independent home newspaper deliveryman (a.k.a. Ira Friedman) says that if his refined Upper East Side cusomers are too embarrassed to buy The New York Post from a newsstand, he will deliver the tabloid wrapped between the folds of The New York Times so the neighbors won't see.

Like Super Bowl Sunday, Election night is one of those semi-national holidays when many Americans have a reason to celebrate while many others -- sometimes even the majority -- are plunged into mourning. When will you know what group you belong to? This, of course, depends in large part on how close the vote is. But there are certain signs that are available early to help canny voters get a jump on the competition.

It would be no surprise tonight at about 9:01 Eastern time if many voters sputter with irritation. That's when TV quite conceivably will declare the winner of the Presidential election. The winner? What about the millions of people in the West who will not have voted yet? If they should then decide not to vote, democracy would be damaged in two ways. These discouraged voters, at least theoretically, could be decisive in other races. And in any case, their sense of public participation will suffer a bruising kick.

President Carlos Salinas de Gortari today cautiously endorsed the sort of broad political changes demanded by the political opposition, including regulations on party financing, limits on campaign spending and more equal access to news outlets. In his annual State of the Nation address, Mr. Salinas was not specific about what sort of measures he would support. He also said that "great political changes" were not what Mexico needed.
