WARNING: Tweets from "Election Center" are NOT verified mainstream projections [View all]

There are At least Two threads with “projections” from “Election Center” calling both the Katie Porter and Katie Hobbs races.

Neither of these races has been called by any mainstream network.

“Election Center” is an unknown source, and not a reliable mainstream media source.

The OP’s should consider deleting their posts, rather than spreading misinformation.

So a tv network is the only legitimate source? RandySF Nov 2022 #20

Wasserman, AP, NYT, WaPo, and major networks, yes Fiendish Thingy Nov 2022 #21

Agreed, Those threads should be deleted as unknown source. nt Tommymac Nov 2022 #22

"The Election Center" is the source of the fake Katie Porter projection now on top of rec list. Nt Fiendish Thingy Nov 2022 #15

Yes... but "Election Center". is an entirely different thing. The The matters. Ellipsis Nov 2022 #16

Thank you for posting the difference. SharonClark Nov 2022 #26

It's not fake, it just not a news service. RandySF Nov 2022 #19

They are panning for donations IMO. NOT a reputable source. Just a random twitter peep afaik. Tommymac Nov 2022 #23

The expectation is that it IS a reliable news service that SharonClark Nov 2022 #27
