Ellen Ioanes at Vox:

Come Tuesday night, millions of Americans will be glued to their TV screens or refreshing their browser windows to see the latest election returns, all in anticipation of a final race call. (Though we might not know the next president until days later.)

Counting ballots can take a while, but news organizations don’t necessarily need to wait for every cast ballot to be counted before announcing a winner. They’re often able to declare who won without the full returns, thanks to the work of teams colloquially known as “decision desks” — groups of political scientists, statisticians, pollsters, and reporters who use mountains of data, statistical models, and on-the-ground reporting to understand which candidate is up where, and how likely a candidate is to win a given precinct, county, or state. Given the doubt that former President Donald Trump has sown over the past eight years, both about the election process and the media, it’s worth understanding in detail how the processes of projecting and calling election results work, and why consumers of news should trust those results. “Remember that we don’t elect anybody,” Anthony Salvanto, who as CBS News’s executive director of elections and surveys, oversees the network’s decision desk, told Vox. “The voters do that. Elections officials are reporting the vote, and what you’re getting from us and the networks is our analysis of what they’ve reported, as well as our first-hand reports from talking to voters.”

How exactly do news organizations figure out who’s winning?

To figure out who won an election, news organizations like Fox News, CNN, the Associated Press (AP), and others use a combination of data from election officials, statistical modeling, and polling and surveys of voters. Raw vote counts come in at the precinct, county, and state levels, and these help decision desks both ensure voting is in line with their expectations and to make decisions on tight contests. Those expectations are shaped by statistical models based on history and other voter information, like geographical location, gender, age, and more.

This year, there are two main systems that news media will rely on for their projections. The AP and Fox News use a system called AP VoteCast, which debuted in 2018 and has been used in every national election since. In a shift from past practice, VoteCast doesn’t rely on exit polling, and instead uses large-scale online surveys of registered voters who are chosen randomly from a probability-based sample, in an attempt to get the most accurate information from the most representative sample.

A different method is used by the National Election Pool (NEP), which provides data to ABC News, CBS News, CNN, and NBC News. The NEP relies on Edison Research to conduct three types of surveys: Election Day exit polls, in-person early voting exit polls, and polls of likely voters to capture data from those likely to vote by mail, Rob Farbman, executive vice president at Edison Research, told Vox. (AP and Fox News used to be part of this group, but left after the 2016 election.) (Decision Desk HQ, a private company that contracts with news organizations including the Economist and The Hill — and Vox.com in 2020 — doesn’t use voter surveys, and instead it relies on a proprietary statistical methodology to project winners.) Each outlet and agency creates their own criteria for interpreting these results.

News organizations have their own decision desk teams that determine when a state or a district can be called to determine that the leading candidate is 100% assured of winning.

In 2020, the Presidential election winner was called on Saturday after the election at just before 10:30AM CST.

How long do we have to wait for a winner to be officially declared this time? Who knows, but hopefully within a couple of days.

Some other Palestinian Fundraisers I want to share

These are Palestinian fundraisers my friend from my uni’s Palestine solidarity encampment asked me to share. Both are Gazan students and writers seeking evacuation funds. 

Eman Alhaj Ali

Eman is a 22-year-old English literature and translation student. She is a writer and has published her writing in different news outlets including Al Jazeera. She has 4 young siblings: Doaa (6), Abduallah (8), Yousef (11), and Ahmad (12). Eman seeks to evacuate herself and her family and to complete her education abroad.

You can find her on Instagram here: eman.alhajali. You can see all the writing she has done on her IG (she has even written for news media like Al Jazeera, Middle East Eye, and The New Arab!))

Currently $40,679 USD raised of $70,000 target.

Here is a link to the writing Eman has written for Al Jazeera:

Muhammed Elbaba

Muhammed has just finished high school and was planning to become a pediatrician. He has 4 siblings. He is a talented student who is very skilled in language and has even cooperated with international television stations. He has received special training in journalism and media because of this. He has now lost his home and his family members have been killed and injured. He is raising funds to 1) treat his brother who is injured and suffering from amenia, 2) evacuate out of Gaza, and 3) continue his dream of studying abroad.

You can find his Instagram here: mohmd_elbaba. You can see that he has had his account since 2020 and has been geotagged in Gaza in his 2022 posts.

Currently $14,619 USD raised of $35,000 target.

As far as I know, neither of them have a Tumblr account. I hope you will still share and donate if you can to both of them!

Understanding the 5+3+3+4 Structure in India’s New Education Policy (NEP) 2020

India’s New Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has introduced a transformative change to the education system by replacing the traditional 10+2 structure with a more flexible and holistic 5+3+3+4 framework. This new model emphasizes the developmental needs of students at each stage, promoting a learner-centric and skill-based approach.

Breakdown of the 5+3+3+4 Structure

Foundational Stage (5 years)Age Group: 3-8 years | Classes: Pre-primary, Grades 1-2 Focuses on play-based, activity-driven learning, emphasizing literacy and numeracy, nurturing cognitive and emotional development.

Preparatory Stage (3 years)Age Group: 8-11 years | Classes: Grades 3-5 Introduces structured subjects like Science and Mathematics while promoting experiential learning and exploration.

Middle Stage (3 years)Age Group: 11-14 years | Classes: Grades 6-8 Focuses on conceptual understanding and introduces more abstract subjects, critical thinking, and project-based learning.

Secondary Stage (4 years)Age Group: 14-18 years | Classes: Grades 9-12 Offers students flexibility to choose multidisciplinary subjects aligned with their career goals, preparing them for higher education or vocational pathways.

How NEP 2020 Benefits Students

The NEP fosters holistic development, focusing on emotional, social, and physical growth alongside academics. It introduces flexibility, allowing students to choose subjects based on interest, and emphasizes vocational training from the middle stage onward. Inclusivity is also a key focus, ensuring quality education for all.At Prachin Global School, the NEP framework has been implemented to align with the 5+3+3+4 structure. The school, known for its holistic approach and focus on experiential learning, continues to nurture academic, physical, and emotional growth, ensuring students are well-prepared for the future.
