ABC Station Mistakenly Airs Election Results Declaring Harris Winner Of Key Swing State
An ABC station aired what appeared to be official election results for Pennsylvania that showed Kamala Harris easily winning the key swing state — more than a week before Election Day. The result popped up at the bottom of the screen during Sunday’s broadcast of the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix by ABC local affiliate WNEP-TV, which services the northern part of the Keystone State. It showed Harris capturing 52% of the votes, compared to 47% for Donald Trump, with 100% of the precincts reporting. The graphic caused a stir on social media, prompting claims of election rigging. One user posted on X: “The cheat is on.” WNEP-TV said that the results came up on the screen in “error” and that they had been “randomly generated” as part of a test ahead of the Nov. 5 election.
