AP Explains Calling Arizona For Biden Early, Before It Got Very Close (flashback)
NPR ^ | November 19, 2020 | Domenico Montanaro

Posted on 10/23/2024 7:22:12 PM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

Just before midnight on the East Coast on election night, Fox News called Arizona for Democrat Joe Biden.

It was a bold call. It opened up a wider path for Biden to win the presidency after a night that began with a lot of bad news for the former vice president. Florida had been called for President Trump, and other states went for the president by wider margins than expected.

When Fox made its call, Biden was up 9 percentage points in Arizona, a state no Democrat had won in more than 20 years.

PTSD still… LORD, please have mercy. Please give us a miracle. Do not let this be another 2020 or even recount 2000.

“Just before midnight on the East Coast on election night, Fox News called Arizona for Democrat Joe Biden. “

Yet despite the fact everyone knew Florida was in the bag for DJT even before the polls close, Fox waited three hours until after the polls closed to call it for him. That’s when i said to my wife and daughter they were going to steal the election from President Trump.

Same reason the so-called “news” media called Florida for Gore before the polls closed in half the state.

Not enough voters watch legacy media. Even less would, if the right would stop linking to them. Whining about them.

I think the deep state threatened the major networks if they didn’t call the races in old Joe’s favor and gaslight the viewers.

The fat odious Chris Stirewalt and his golden calf worshiping slave Arnon Mishkin were accomplices to the steal.

They have connections, and they knew before election day, that Obama (and the John McCain machinery) had his people in the right place to pull off the greatest steal in American history.

All will be revealed soon. Stirewalt and Mishkin will try to flee to Canada. They will be apprehended and executed by military firing squad. Many will try to escape. None will be successful. Justice is coming in 2025.

“I think the deep state threatened the major networks if they didn’t call the races in old Joe’s favor and gaslight the viewers.”

Don’t be surprised if this happens again, but in Trump’s favor. The Deep State is too invested in the radical Marxism of the left and they are finding out that if Harris wins, she is going to purge the Deep State and install hardcore Marxists. Just like Obama did with his unelected, unaccountable Czars. They are scared to death.

Similar things happened in the 2012 race between Romney and Obama. Fox was slow to call states for Romney, quick to call states for Obama. Bret Baier and Brit Hume were starting to show their bias in statements and how they were calling the race.

I think the 2012 election was stolen for Romney, but we were still in the stage where no one dared to call out Obama publicly for fear of being called a racist. Also, Romney wasn’t a great candidate, so his loss wasn’t out of the question. I remember several districts, Philly was one where the number of ballots cast were greater than the number of registered voters.

That was the beginning of the modern era Democrat cheat machine. Thank God, they underestimated the amount of cheating necessary in 2016...
