RE: Should the Associated Press Cartel Be Charged with Calling Elections?

in #politics3 years ago (edited)

Youtube's official stance that the AP called the election.

Yes, they called the election. So what? But that's quite different from certified results.

You or I can have personal "official" stances that that candidate X won just as YouTube can have a corporate "official" stance.

We have to wait for the end of the recounts even in situations where the candidate does not have a clear path to victory.

No, we don’t have to wait. We can declare that candidate X won. Trump’s repeatedly declared that he won. He’s wrong, but he’s free to declare so.

Here is the AP's official page.

Nowhere on that page are they claiming certified results. They are simply calling winners. We are all free to ignore their calls.
