That’s Fivey Fox’s first emoji of the night. Fivey reports the ABC News projections with emojis if the projections diverge from our expectations based on our final forecast.
In this case, Fivey was surprised (😮) by Trump’s win in Florida, which our forecast showed as “slightly favored” for Biden.
Just as a reminder, Fivey is an emotional fox. Fivey responds with a surprised emoji (😮) if a candidate we listed as “slightly favored” loses a race, with a shocked emoji (😲) if a candidate we have listed as “favored” loses a race, and with a mind blown emoji (🤯) if a candidate we have listed as “clearly favored” or “very likely” loses a race.
