MSNBC Puts Florida Governor Race Vote-Total Graphic Onscreen A Wee Bit Early
Erik Pedersen
and David Robb
November 5, 2018  It’s the kind of goof that the folks who scream about “fake news” likely will scream about. MSNBC this evening briefly put a graphic onscreen that showed “vote counts” for the Florida gubernatorial race — you know, the one being held tomorrow.
“Quick clarification here,” a rather embarrassed All In host Chris Hayes told viewers. “Just want to say, earlier this hour, uh, we showed a graphic of the Florida gubernatorial race. May have caught your eye because our system had inadvertently populated some test numbers. Obviously, we do not yet have any vote totals here, the night before the election. That was a misfire.  Don’t worry. I was pretty confused when I saw it up there, to see it myself.” And, of course, MSNBC had Democrat Andrew Gillum leading the GOP’s Ron DeSantis by six-tenths of a percentage point with 99% of the ballots counted. It’s going to be a long day and night in America — and, to a lesser extent, around the world — on Tuesday, so stick with Deadline for coverage of the key national races along with what’s going on here in California. That is, except while you’re out casting your vote in one on the most important midterm elections in recent memory.

Maybe they just don't think people stupid enough to think those figures are real.. the day before voting. In any case if "my guy" was behind by a tiny fraction i would make sure to get my vote in for him; so suppression? Not likely. Wishful thinking, maybe.IP: Logged |

The problem with your comment is that MSNBC really does think their viewers are terminally stupid. If they believed in the intellectual brilliance of their viewers, they wouldn't broadcast the utter lying crap on display 24/7 on MSNBC. IP: Logged |
