Meltdown as liberal outlet’s iconic election night tracker predicts huge Trump win

Based on the preliminary results that are available as they become available on election night, the needle is intended to forecast the outcome of the elections.

“We predict a very close race on election night.” Nate Cohn, the paper’s senior political analyst, said earlier Tuesday that “almost all of the vote counted so far points toward a very close election, as anticipated.”

But when the paper’s Democrat-leaning readership saw that Trump was likely to win the election and the entire “Blue Wall”—Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan—they started to lament the numbers.

Does anyone have a timelapse of the most recent election’s NYT needle? One social media user said, “I’m NERVOUS AS F*** when I look at it in its current state.”

The ‘blue wall’ of the midwestern states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan would be Harris’ sole route to the White House as a result.”

The simple existence of the needle has sent liberals into even greater agitation.

“Seriously F*** The NY Times needle,” another person remarked. Simply put, it’s clickbait for frantic election supporters.

With reference to a potential “red mirage,” a voter from California said, “This is why I won’t look at the stupid NYT needle.” It only makes everyone feel more anxious.

“Oh for heaven’s sake!” NYT’s election needle has returned. THIS IS NOT WHAT ANYONE WANT,” Rachel Sklar wrote.

“I told my comrades overseas that exit polls are useless and fake news; ignore them and the foolish NYT needle. Nobody has ever known anything about the outcome, and nobody knows anything now.”

It was believed that a walkout by the newspaper’s technological staff was endangering the needle.

Early on election night, the needle was functioning in spite of the worries.

The needle, as its name implies, is a visual that indicates the probability of either presidential contender prevailing based on voting results and other computations.

With 75% of the ballots counted in Georgia, Trump is ahead of Kamala Harris.

Kamala Harris gets 47.3% of the vote, while Donald Trump has 52.1%.

Over 70% of the results are reported for the majority of the counties around liberal-leaning Atlanta.

Savannah’s surrounding areas, which are likewise more blue than the rest of the state, haven’t registered many votes yet, either.

In the crucial battleground state, Trump currently leads by about 200,000 votes, 2,103,900 to 1,899,561.

In the majority of cases, it is believed that Georgia’s crucial 16 electoral votes are required for either candidate to win.

The Harris campaign continues to believe that she has a chance to capture Georgia and North Carolina, two vital battleground states.

While Georgia’s suburban early vote count exceeded the Harris campaign’s expectations, the state’s rural turnout was broadly in line with their expectations.

Two major universities in North Carolina, UNC-Charlotte and UNC-Wilmington, had enormous lineups, and the vice president’s path was being obstructed by late-arriving mail-in ballots.

As the former president takes the lead in Georgia, a pivotal swing state, Donald Trump has surged to an all-time high in the betting markets with a 72% chance of winning.

Kentucky, Indiana, West Virginia, Alabama, Oklahoma, Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas, Ohio, Louisiana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Arkansas are among the states where Trump has won so far.

Vermont, Maryland, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Delaware, Illinois, New Jersey, and New York have all been won by Kamala Harris.
