Here’s How to Know What’s Really Happening on Election Night

The media’s response will offer some clues.

The American Spectator   . . ."We’d like to know more, and we’d like to know it a lot earlier than we do now. We’d suffer a lot less anxiety and probably get a lot more sleep.

"Well, there might be a way to go “behind the numbers” while watching election-night coverage, to get a bead on what’s really going down.

"We on the red team will know we’re having a rough night if [A small sampling of] these things happen:

• John King is working the big CNN election map with a drink in one hand.
• We’re shown film of Antifa members serving as poll monitors in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.
• A conservative-heavy precinct with long lines is reported to have run out of ballots at 10 a.m.
• Reports surface of many ballot harvesters, a.k.a. “mules,” delivering votes to counting. . . facilities.. . .More.

"The above is not a rosy scenario. But if the following is happening, then the red team is having a nice night:": 

• Rachel Maddow is taking off her glasses and wiping her eyes a lot.
• PolitiFact is reported to be rehiring the 500 fact-checkers who were laid off after Biden won the presidency and Democrats won the Senate.
• CBS’s election panel breaks into inconsolable weeping at 11 p.m.
• Workmen are seen in the Capitol parking lot painting this on the curb in front of the Senate committee hearing room: “This Space Reserved for Secretary Mayorkas.” (Hat tip to Rep. Steve Scalise.)
• Pundits on CNN’s election-night panel are saying the phrase “a bipartisan spirit is needed in Congress now” a lot.
• Hunter Biden is seen boarding a flight to Brunei, which has no extradition treaty with the U.S.. . .. . .

• NBC is running a chyron across the bottom of the screen that says, “Complete coverage of ‘The Day Democracy Died’ at 11.”
• Not only are the pundits using the words “new majority” a lot, but late in the evening they’re saying “new majorities.”
• And, if we hear commentators from ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, and PBS expressing “serious concern about the integrity of this election,” we can probably sleep well.
