Backfire would imply that this info was released biased motive.
I don't see how this is any different that releasing Exit Polling data as the day goes on. They don't do that, so why do this?
I agree. However that will result in not all ballots being counted on Election Day. And it’s just not humanely possible to count all those votes in one day. The country cannot allow Trump to stop the counting early. All legal votes should be counted! Every single one.
Exit polls
They absolutely do have a biased motive: getting people to click.
That wasn't my intention. Backfire is probably not the right term, though. More like whichever candidate had the lead would be at significant risk of the opposition rallying to overcome that known lead.
IIRC exit polling info doesn't start getting released until pretty late in the day. That said... the last several elections I haven't really bothered paying attention to exit polls, so I might have an outdated view. Most of the time I was on the west coast, and I just wasn't going to stay up that late on a work night, I would find out the next day anyway.
Man, you must have shitty news media in Australia to think this is a tough decision. We've got Trump, a manchild who clearly should have run in the first place and when he was fired, got a lot of supporters to break into the US Capitol bldg to try to keep his job. Against a prosecutor, Attorney General, US Senator, who can go a whole paragraph without abusing hyperbole.
Don't I wish I had that powed.
Find the typo.

No it isn't. Everyone already knew the guy was in the tank for Trump, and that he was doing a shit job of trying to hide it.
FIFY
It may not be a tough decision but unexpected or undesired things sometimes happen.
It's about as telling as you saying you're voting for the guy with dementia.
