"Calling" states before voting is closed should be illegal

Can we all agree that a law should be passed to ban this practice? How have we not learned the most important lesson from the 2000 election?

I tend to agree. We all want instant gratification. But I'd rather be fair to everyone involved and wait to call

States aren't called until the polls close.

I agree, imagine if you lived in the west coast

If those reports dissuade people from voting, then they aren't smart enough to be allowed to vote.

Agreed...so should tampering with an official debate such as what CNN did.

Totally soon as polls close MSM is calling eff states before votes are even counted.

The problem comes when a state crosses time zones and the polls close at different times... like in 2000 where they called Florida while the heavily Republican panhandle was still open.

How can you say that with a straight face? News pundits are calling states all over - before the polls are closed.

Florida won't be called until then.

We need total election reform. Make Election Day a national holiday and don't publicize votes until all states have been counted would be good measure in addition to multiple other measures.

Yeah. The entire 2000 bullshite was because the networks called Florida and suppressed the Republican base in the panhandle.
Never would have happened absent that horseshite.

Also, all primaries and caucuses should be on the same day at the same time
