I don’t know how much this is a real phenomenon, but the media have proved over and over and over that THEY BELIEVE that by convincing the public about an outcome of an election that they can influence it in that direction.
It makes sense to some degree, but I don’t know how much it has been studied or proven to be true. If you can convince voters who vote one way that the other side will win, a certain percentage of them will stay home. No?
The media have been wrong in the past, but there is no greater proof of how much they want to project the wrong message and influence an election, you only need to look at their behavior running up to the 2016 presidential election.
Here’s an example of “Madd Maxine, the Flaming Liberal” helping the RATs “Blue Wave.”

I am hoping for a ‘blue wave’ here. ‘Here’, is Canaduh and ‘blue’ is the Conservative Party.
Unfortunately, we have to hold out until Monday, October 21, 2019 federally and until May 31, 2019 in Alberta.
The Ontario election is scheduled for June 7, 2018 and it looks like the Conservatives will win, perhaps even with a majority. Things may be looking up.
Blue wave - blue wall - yeah, whatever...
Liberal elites hate Trump... AND newsrooms around the country are staffed by the children of liberal elites... Men and women who never faced anything tougher than waiting to find out if DaaaDee would send the money for the eight thousand dollar purse... or the entry fees and travel expense for an international sailboat race.

I don’t think there is a blue wave, unless it’s the Japanese baseball team the Orix Blue Wave (Ichiro Suzuki’s team in Japan.) That Blue Wave I believe is real.
The media is the Party.
The Blue Wave will turn out to be an Ebb Tide.
