Head of Fox News Decision Desk Foresees Delay of 4 Days for Presidential Election Results
Breitbart ^ | October 21st 2024 | Wendell Husebo

Four days after Election Day is the over/under for when Fox News will likely declare a presidential election winner, Arnon Mishkin, the head of the network’s decision desk, said.

Mishkin’s prediction indicates the race will be too close to call for several days after the election, a predicament that mirrors the 2020 election.

“The over/under is Saturday,” Mishkin told Politico. “Which was when the call was made last time.”

Perhaps they don’t want another situation of calling Arizona for Plugs Biden.

LOL! When the GOP strategy consists of the message, “out vote the theft” you know there is big trouble brewing.

Not if everyone gets out the vote in huuuuuge numbers. This election will be called by noon the day after.

Every other article on here is designed to freak folks out. Just stop being defeatist. Go effin vote. Take your neighbor with you. Trump is winning bigly.

First they have to find the keys to the trunks of all the cars with all the spare completed ballots and make sure the Jamaican HooDoo has enough ballots to win.

Fox is seeing that they won’t be able to call Az for Dems without serious assistance?

They’re not winning

Usually within hours of the polls closing should be the standard. Yet another reason to discard the national popular vote idea. Some jurisdictions apparently are comfortable with its taking weeks to come up with the final tally.

Remember when Fox fraudulently called Arizona for Brandon after only 11% of precincts reported in?

The Murdochs hate President Trump. They’re giving the democrats 4 days to create however many ballots they need to steal the election again.

If we cannot process absentee ballots on election day, we need to change the process.

They went from saying that Trump might not win one single state in 2016, to saying that whoever appears to be the winner might not actually be the winner in 2020, to saying it’ll take 4 days to know the winner in 2024.

If it is called on Tuesday night, then it will be for Harris. If Trump looks to be leading late that night, they won't announce it for several days in the off-chance some "vote corrections" flip some states.

Even Ruth Bader Ginsburg said presidential elections should be determined by midnight of election day.

Cancel our soapbox, corrupt our ballot box — there’s only one box left.

In the spirit of full disclosure and “just to be clear”, as Harris would say, this fool Mishkin is the fool at Fox who called Arizona for Biden in such an inartful way. This signaled to everyone that Fox was in the bag for Biden and the Democrats. He should have been fired. That he was not fired tells me that Fox is still in that same bag. Beware.

" It will be called on the evening of the election."

I doubt it because of so many mail-ins, including the CHEAT mail-ins.
