I am tired of having to listen to all the side theories of every major news outlet and their interpretations of the votes as they come in. Is there anyone better than another to get more solid info and less bullshit?

    No. There is no such thing as unbiased information. Even the numbers are gathered by a certain methodology which will have bias if not explicitly political then towards the faith in that methodology.

      Counting and addition a methodology?

      The only thing might be the “red mirage / blue wave” from 2020 caused by the fact Trump told his followers to only vote in person and the Dems told people to vote by mail as there was a pandemic going on. This caused the mail in ballots to be predominantly dem and the in-person ballots to be predominantly rep. The mail in ballots in some states can only be counted after the polls close… creating the illusion of impropriety if you don’t understand what’s going on. Trump and his team pushed on this specifically to their uninformed voter base.

      The number of votes that each candidate gets is unbiased information. It is determined by using addition to count them, which is also an unbiased methodology.

      Bro they all rely on the same API and they don’t get interpret by anyone. Shure there are some dodgy sites that make shit up but the major news outlets don’t.
