Guys, the networks are private parties, they can call any state for any one, just like Drudge can or you or I can say anyone won in a particular state. There is nothing official about it. It is purely private speech and you can listen to it or not. George Bush himself when Florida was called for Gore, said he was switching his TV to Fox News because Fox had not called it. If you are standing in line to vote, you do not get out of line just because the stated was 'called', no matter if it was called for the person you are voting for or the other person. The only person who can call an election is the Secretary of State, in this case Kathleen Harris. That person's judgement is final.
