that race is a virtual tie....this is sooo coincidental that now TWO rats are posted as having won their races.....no, nothing suspicious here...
As I posted on a similar thread, I’m a TV techie who actually does this testing, and a mistake like this is my greatest fear! I was monitoring test numbers being fed by AP earlier this week, recalling national and local results screens.
The scariest part, I was at a West Coast station remotely testing two stations in a Mid West state! I wouldn’t of had a clue if someone there had it on air.
So much of television tech support today is done remotely across regions or even the entire county from one or two locations.
Could it be intentional, yeah, but pretty unlikely! I wasn’t even providing the test numbers, just making sure our interface was putting all the data in the right places.
Case in point, on one test screen, the “winning” check mark was next to the losing candidate. We’ll obviously have to get the fixed this week.
I wouldn’t be too concerned about this, nor surprised if there are more cases that come to light in the next week.
