CBS News affiliate calls 2012 presidential race for Barack Obama weeks ahead of election.
The 2012 presidential election is still more than two weeks away,
but on Friday a CBS News affiliate in Arizona called the race for President Barack Obama.
For 17 seconds, Phoenix, Arizona CBS News affiliate KPHO ran a lower
third graphic that showed that Obama had won the Nov. 6 election over Gov.
Mitt Romney with 99% of the precincts reporting.
The lower third graphic appeared around 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 19, during an episode
of “The People’s Court.”
