This was a big issue in Florida during the 2000 election. The panhandle of Florida is in the Central Time Zone and polls are open 1 hour later than other parts. The state was called for Al Gore while the polls were still open in the more "Red" panhandle area [0] and there were rumors is skewed the results or caused people to not go out and vote since the state had already been decided.

You could delay it a little but live updates is kind of a bad idea.
Minutely or hourly updates might be kind of cool but yeah bandwagoning would be an issue.
I see this as a pro not a con. I want to be reassured that my vote was counted correctly. That is way more important to me than keeping my vote secret from anyone in the room.
