Shouldn't they be telling me it's close so I don't decide to skip the polls and attend a #BLM rally instead?
Because they are partisan. Fox does the same thing, saying that trump is totally gonna win. You have a disturbing confidence in what you are being told by the people you already agree with and want to like. It's not a zero-sum question of "say good thing or bad thing"; some potential voters will be complacent and not vote because they are assured their guy is doing good, others will be demoralized and not vote because they are told their guy is doing bad or that it's "close". The various media outlets will always back their guy, they are literally paid to. Or you can watch c-span, which is boring as shit and also about a billion times more accurate.
