Original Note:
Each state defines the period, 1-3 weeks (https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/after-the-voting-ends-the-steps-to-complete-an-election.aspx), in which it'll have its vote counting completed &, in turn, report election results. News outlets project election outcomes more quickly by using interim data, if they have the data needed to do so, & making inferences from it. https://journalistsresource.org/politics-and-government/national-news-call-presidential-winners/
