WHAT THE EDITOR DID

The second model checked the writer's draft against the same sources and changed it before publication. Struck words were in the draft; underlined words are its corrections.

WHAT IT FLAGGED editor revise: Delete the unsupported description of race-calling considerations while retaining the source-backed account of the eight AP Election Day guides. - "including the news agency’s race-calling considerations": The source material identifies the items only as AP decision notes about what to expect on Election Day and does not specifically establish that they discuss race-calling considerations.
