The new ploy for suppressing Republican/Conservative turnout.

Apparently exit polling has run its psychological course and no longer effective.

Hoping some old retirees, of which there are many in FL, people will be easily confused and think that they missed out on voting this year.

The truly stupid viewer will see that and conclude there’s no call to vote. That’s one less D vote per!

If the numbers match the real outcome it will be pretty interesting how they explain that (even if just a coincidence, it will be a meme forever).

This is intentional fake news being shown, accidentally, too early.

This kind of thing seems common. Interesting the accident never favors the Republican.

That’s a good thing. Show the demwits they’ve already won and the election was the day before so no need to go to the polls.

The only reason to “call” an election before ballots are cast is to suppress Republican turnout, and they certainly know and understand this.


And do it in a fashion where a person feels “ so my 1 vote didn’t matter anyway “

Good, maybe Gillum’s stupid voters will think we all ready had the election and not vote. Nobody on our side watches that channel.

OMG, this is soooooo FISHY! No doubt they are expecting to put that up tonight. How do they know a day ahead how the vote will turn out with this much specificity? Extremely fishy.
