Decision Desk on Tuesday projected that Trump has won the state and its 15 electoral votes.
The organization also projected Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) has beaten Democrat challenger Cal Cunningham, which would give Republicans 49 seats in the 100-member body with three races left uncalled or in runoffs.
According to the current unofficial count, Trump has received 2.73 million votes, compared to Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s 2.65 million votes.
Interestingly enough they were also the first to call the election for Biden.
Quote:
While Adweek relies upon established newswires like the Associated Press and Reuters before we report the election results, several media organizations, including Vox and Business Insider, called the race for Joe Biden earlier this morning (albeit with “projected” as a qualifier tucked into those initial posts).
The news outlets’ respective moves to make the early calls for Biden wasn’t strictly arbitrary. Enter Decision Desk HQ, a lesser-known player that big-name media companies like The Economist, BuzzFeed, Vox and Business Insider rely upon for election data.
nope. been expecting it to go to trump since last week, biden never had the lead in NC
Untrue. He had the lead when the polls closed due to early/mail in votes which were reported before any counts from polling places. Maybe we should investigate?!? LOL.
I thought the media didn't get to determine election outcomes?
They don't get to call an election unless it's going red.
