I thought we all agreed that going forward they would be referred to as MSNPC.

Also, those graphics are made in advance so that when it is game time they just have to input the vote count and it is ready to broadcast.

Sports does the same thing with players graphics.

This isn't some big conspiracy, likely just some intern or assistant fricking around by airing it early.

Although I suppose some idiot may see it and think the election is over, if so that is on them.

My guess would be that the viewers of that channel in general, and that show specifically, would be liberal voters and any suppression would be on the Gillum side of the ledger.

Occam’s Razor explanation is stupid mistake.

Their bias is not in question. I just don’t think this would “help” them.

That information should not be available to anyone.

It isn’t information. All networks do this ( NOT show them). But, they do a ‘practice run’ of populating data and checking their graphics to be sure they work properly.

So, they will create data sets and send them to themselves in order to bug check the system of receiving vote totals and turning that into the things we see on screen.

This happened in 2016 with the Wisconsin SOS website and it had Trump winning. Libs were so mad and referenced it a lot after the election
