"Needle-Be-Gone" is an extension that magically removes the New York Times' "election needle" from 2020 presidential election coverage online.
Specifically, it removes the needles from the home page, and from the top of the election-tracker main page, too.
With this extension, you can enjoy the Times' superb coverage without having to, you know ... look at the needle.
It should work *reasonably* well, at least on the night of Nov. 3, 2020. But if the Times changes any of the layout on those pages, it could stop working. Oh well.
(Full disclosure: I'm a tremendous fan of the New York Times' journalism! In fact, I *write* for the New York Times Magazine. But the needle... sue me, it gives me the jitters.)

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
