Democrat Media, Call The Race For Trump So We Can Go To Bed

On election night, Donald Trump ​appears poised for victory with‌ over a 95 percent chance, as indicated by The New York Times’ election “needle.” He⁤ is leading in key states known as the “blue wall,” similar to the 2016 election, where he had ‍significant​ early leads. Despite this, corporate media are hesitant to officially call the race or concede defeat in critical states like Wisconsin⁤ and Michigan, where voters recall past elections where unexpected outcomes occurred overnight due to large vote dumps that favored Joe Biden. During the 2020 election, significant discrepancies⁤ were noted, including vote counts​ that seemingly appeared out of nowhere, leading to skepticism over the legitimacy of those results. Concerns over mail-in ballot counting ​practices in⁢ Pennsylvania further fueled doubts among voters. The ongoing fear and confusion among voters ⁢stem from a combination of previous experiences, media hesitance, and perceived election irregularities, mirroring a troubling‍ sentiment from prior presidential contests.


As election night drags on, Donald Trump’s victory is imminent, and Kamala Harris’ path to one has vanished. The New York Times’ election “needle” shows Trump with a greater than 95 percent chance of winning. It all comes down to some of the so-called “blue wall” states Trump carried in 2016 — and he leads in them again. Corporate media are finally starting to acknowledge Trump’s Pennsylvania win, Fox News has put Wisconsin into Trump’s column, and Alaska hasn’t been called yet, meaning the race is over.

So why are so many voters still afraid to go to bed?

Democrat media won’t call the blue wall states of Wisconsin and Michigan, and they won’t call the race. Even though they know Trump will reach more than 270 votes they won’t concede official defeat.

But Americans are old enough to remember the last presidential election, which came down to the exact same states. In 2020, voters went to bed on election night or early Wednesday morning without final results but with Trump leading by comfortable margins in the key battleground states. Corporate networks wouldn’t call the race because of some outstanding ballots, but Republicans rested confidently, and for good reason.

In the middle of the night, however, things changed. In Wisconsin and Michigan, dead-of-night vote dumps went 100 percent for Joe Biden and zero percent — not a single ballot — for Trump, as my colleague John Daniel Davidson wrote at the time. In Michigan, ballot tickers brazenly posted 138,339 magic votes for Biden and precisely zero for his Republican challenger. Election officials and spokesmen blamed “data errors,” typos, and inexplicably “skewed” results. But Michigan was ultimately called for Biden.

In Wisconsin, almost the same thing happened. When voters went to sleep on election night, Trump led by a cushy 4.1 points. When they awoke in the morning, they learned that another 100 percent Biden vote dump had tipped the race to him overnight. Wisconsin was called for Biden too, by 0.6 percent.

Pennsylvania Democrats took a different tack, deciding to count mail-in ballots that came in after Election Day. Not only that, but they counted mail-in ballots without postmarks, meaning it was impossible to determine when and from where the ballots were mailed. Pennsylvania was called for Biden too.

Those who commented on these shenanigans were censored. As Davidson wrote at the time and before Elon Musk bought the company, “Twitter users could not like or share a tweet from the Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh noting the 138,339-vote dump” in Michigan. The same thing happened to The Federalist’s CEO Sean Davis and apparently anyone else who tweeted about the Biden vote dump in Michigan.

In addition to voters’ demoralization at the hands of Big Tech censors, they were even more dispirited by the election being inexplicably swung in the middle of the night. This time around, Democrats laid the groundwork for the same thing to happen.

Corporate media and election officials have consistently attempted to normalize Election Day result delays, both before the 2022 and the 2024 elections. But election-night results have been “the norm in America for decades” and are “still the norm in many much larger states,” as my colleague Brianna Lyman wrote in October.

So how could eager voters possibly go to sleep? Fool me once, shame on you. But fool me twice?

We need final vote tallies in Wisconsin and Michigan, and we need them now. Kamala Harris’ team set the expectation that we wouldn’t have answers tonight — with the Harris campaign’s co-chair announcing Harris won’t speak until tomorrow — but now we do.

There is no path to victory for Harris. Trump has the votes. But Americans aren’t going to bed this time until Democrat media tell us what we already know. The race is over. Just count it and call it.
