WHOOPS! Last night during Chris Hayes’ show, MSNBC accidentally posted a graphic that showed — SURPRISE — Dem Andrew Gillum in the lead in the Florida governor’s race:
MSNBC accidentally shows false results of Tomorrow’s election that has not happened in Florida showing socialist Gillum in slight lead against @RonDeSantisFL. Wishful thinking? What do you think https://t.co/IHaTFIAYEq

Chris Hayes blamed the “system” for the error. Via Deadline:
“Just want to say, earlier this hour, uh, we showed a graphic of the Florida gubernatorial race. May have caught your eye because our system had inadvertently populated some test numbers. Obviously, we do not yet have any vote totals here, the night before the election. That was a misfire. Don’t worry. I was pretty confused when I saw it up there, to see it myself.”
Sure. Totally automated. No “wishful thinking” involved. AT. ALL.
