While the whole world eagerly waits to see US election results, it is important to prevent sources that lead to misinformation and false data.
All media and news channels in the US are actively reporting the latest election updates. As America decides who will become the next US president, multiple platforms show varied data on the exit polls, making it difficult for global online users to rely on them. However, some of the experienced and seasoned media platforms have kept their information-sharing strictly objective and data-first in nature.
The live stream took place on Tuesday, November 5, and will close at 11 p.m. ET / 4 a.m. GMT (Nov. 6) / 2 p.m. AEDT (Nov. 6). One of the major concerns for election result watchers is the biased and opinionated content that they come across, along with the latest data. As the race to reach 270 seats is building strong momentum, the spread of motivated content is rapidly increasing.

Top social media platforms like Meta, TikTok, X, and YouTube are under immense pressure to prevent the spread of disinformation, as they could fire up abrupt chaos unwillingly. In response, Meta has deprioritized political content on Instagram and Threads. The company is also actively developing fact-checkers and labeling of AI-generated content around election topics as well. Search engines are playing a good supporting role in providing real-time data, with Google leading the credibility ranks.
