NBC News Waiting for Milwaukee Election Officials to Fix 'Human Error' Made for RIVETING Television

Socialist Democrat and hater of traditional American holidays, Francesca Hong, stunned a lot of people after yesterday's primary election by losing after we'd been seeing polling like this: 

Last 5 Wisconsin Governor Democratic Primary Polls

State Navigate: 🔵 Hong +22
Public Policy Polling: 🔵 Hong +18
Marquette University: 🔵 Hong +25
State Navigate: 🔵 Hong +29
Public Policy Polling: 🔵 Hong +20

Results (88% Reporting): 🟡Crowley +0.5 pic.twitter.com/FRqVIOiVT1

And then... Hong lost.

This also happened last night:

NBC News decided to try and wait out the delay for the final results. 

They waited...

And waited...

🔥🚨 AWKWARD — NBC ended its live coverage of the Wisconsin Democratic primary as Milwaukee County officials announced a “tabulation error" in the election data.

"Tabulation error." Alrighty then.

We won't hold our breath waiting for NBC News journos to now investigate exactly why that "error" occurred.

Maybe Bernie Sanders saw it coming since he declined to endorse his fellow traveler socialist in this particular race.
