Provisional: Non-AP outlets checked by Google News/Bing News titles (one CBS candidate opened). AP counted per AP-primary method: AP copy on WTOP, Las Vegas Sun and Yahoo News opened and dated Nov 6; AP’s own page blocked (403), so its own-site date is unverified. Unopened candidates not counted. ABC News returned no candidates.
