Part 2/6:
In the months preceding the election, one of the analysts, who had been scrutinizing the data for three months and one longer, observed an encouraging trend for Trump. As they analyzed credible polls, a consensus began to emerge that indicated increasing support for Trump's campaign. This nuanced approach to poll analysis helped distinguish between those designed to convey specific narratives versus those rooted in genuine data.
While the analyst was not surprised by the final outcome based on empirical evidence, there was a lingering emotional reaction. The thought of possible interference in the election process created tension; witnessing Trump clinch the victory, despite concerns of any last-minute political maneuverings, triggered a deep emotional response.
