At the beginning of election night, the NY Times had Hillary at a 92% chance of winning. Total confirmation bias and believing their own propaganda. Just think of the horror they felt as they had to keep saying “Trump wins”.
I lost it on seeing Hillary’s lead in FL on CNN about 7:00 PM. Was convinced it was gonna be a repeat of 2012 when I saw how it was going and I had to flip channels to regain my composure.
I switched back to CNN after awhile and when Trump won OH, I felt things were back on track.
Rest of the night was as exciting and dramatic as heck.
Vigo County - IN’s national bellwether was distorted. Trump was winning by the indicated blowout margins in Red States but it didn’t show swing states would be so close.
No one anticipated that development. In the end though, Trump won. That’s all that really matters.
