No, it is not great for them. They will be losing a lot of their regular viewer base because of this. Even their on-air people have been questioning why Fox called AZ so quickly.

what difference does it make?...All Trump has to do is prove them wrong by winning the state, honestly i do not see what the issue is

The issue is that Fox called the state very early even though it is still in play at this very moment 2 days later. Even liberal CNN was curious at why Fox called it so early when even they hadn't yet. This gives people the impression that Fox is against Trump winning.

sure, but I can't believe it was politically motivated, it was their analytical guy trying to show off his skills. i would assume the guy at CNN was speaking in terms of their analytical departments. Why would a network make a call like that if their analytics didn't actually support it? To show support for a candidate? And when they end up wrong looking like idiots?

The writing was on the wall that unless they cheated it could come down to Arizona. So, they did both.

They stopped the vote in the same liberal states that have been rioting to bring in a few extra suitcases of ballots and had the one tv station the conservatives watch and think they can trust declare Biden so Trump supporters hop out of line to beat traffic.

It's just like how the polls are used to suppress Republican votes. They had Biden winning huge to give voters the impression that Trump had no chance so Trump-voters shouldn't even come out to vote.

I commented earlier in this thread i felt a poll showing Biden way ahead would do more to suppress Biden supporters, they would have less reason to go and vote if they felt their vote wasn't nessasiry. A poll showing one candidate with a large lead might suppress voter turnout, but I don't know if it would nessasiry favor one over the other

okay, they should have called Florida faster and Arizona slower, so what difference does it make? I really do not see it affecting anything, other than pissing off Trump. And I don't see what he has to be pissed off about, gives him the opportunity to make them out as idiots, go win it. Sure, he feels betrayed by Fox, we know how his thinking goes. But really if it shows distancing between the two its probably a good thing. The political wing of Fox does support Trump, and now they can point at the network being impartial

There was an issue with this in the past, the networks were calling elections based on exit polling and making calls before the polls were actually closed and so perhaps effecting races. But with the polls closed, i just do not see what difference it makes, if Fox wants to stick their neck out and make a call on Arizona before the other networks, okay.

Alaska has been stuck at 50% for three days. I guess they are awaiting the Eskimo Mail in vote to arrive by dog sled. Apparently it tends to lean Democrat so they can't call it yet.

yeah, i saw a blurb from Nate Silver on that, they had not counted any of their mail-ins yet...

and here, Alaska has the slowest ballot counting process in America. Does that make you suspicious? Alaska claims its all about security

so now it would come down to Trump needing every vote he can get, funny how the wheel spins

NOV. 6, 9:54 AM
It’s now Trump’s turn to try to close a gap in Georgia. We estimate that Trump would need to win only 52 percent of the 24,600 potentially outstanding votes in Georgia in order to regain the lead. In addition to the remaining mail-in votes that we’ve been talking about for days, that figure now includes provisional, overseas and rejected absentee ballots that might also count. However, some of them surely won’t count; plus, these remaining ballots are expected to skew Democratic anyway. So Trump’s path in Georgia, while not impossible, is longer than it looks.
