Closer elections means they can't call it quite as early, more mail-in ballots post-COVID (these cant be counted early even if they get delivered early), almost certainly some changes to how we consume the news or how the news presents the details.

The early counting of mail-in ballots, I believe, is actually up to the state.

Yeah I think you can count but you can’t publish and therefore “poison” the election.
