There should be a election law that Major Media Outlets are prohibited from making any national projection until the polls in these western states (Calf.,Alaska, Hawaii) are closed. They can report present, official state vote totals when that individual state poll closes, but no national projection on the next President of the United States. (or lessor federal office)
Why is this important?
Every four years the major media outlets have declared the winners in Federal elections before the polls in California, Alaska and Hawaii close. The votes in those states are marginalized by the already declared winner. There should be a election law that Major Media Outlets are prohibited from making any national projection until the polls in these western states are closed. They can report present, official vote totals when that individual state poll closes, but no national projection on the next President of the United States. (or lessor federal office)
