The Associated Press calls the 2020 Presidential Election on Blockchain - A View from Outer Space - AP Presidential 2020

The Associated Press calls the 2020 Presidential Election on Blockchain - A View from Outer Space is an innovative one-of-a-kind NFT artwork created by The Associated Press “the most trusted source” in collaboration with Everipedia “the leader in on-chain knowledge”, and renowned digital artist Marko Stanojevic.

The NFT was created and published on Ethereum by AP using their Ethereum address 0x436Ee8cB3a351893b77F8B57c9772DAEc3a96445. AP used this address to call the winner of each state in the 2020 United States Presidential Election on Ethereum using Everipedia’s OraQle software. This marked the first time that a US election was called on a blockchain.

The artwork depicts a visual of the electoral college map that is being viewed from space. The map uses election data that AP published on-chain using Everipedia’s OraQle software on the winner of each state in the 2020 US Presidential Election.
