Nah, I wouldn't. The way of calling states sometimes probably gives rise to mistakes but I would think even though states can usually be called before all votes are counted, they would usually be sure before they did.
But then, there have been times when perhaps political manouverings try and pronounce a winner to psychologically try and get first word out. I think that has happened before.
