On actual election night, it's not OK for pundits, major 3 networks, cable news programs, and god only knows who else, to project the winner of the election before all voting polls have closed!
Figure most of these pundits and networks headquarters are in the eastern time zone, and the west coast voters still have 3 hours to cast their ballots before polls EVEN close there!
I've noticed during these primaries they can't wait to announce who takes what states and that isn't so much an issue as it's state by state results, BUT come election night please at least wait until all time zones have at least had a chance to vote BEFORE projecting the election!
