Same-day polls don't seem a lot different from what we've been getting for weeks this year, no?

It seems like times have changed, everyone has orders of magnitude more information now than we did decades ago. It could suppress voting or encourage voting, hard to say. Anyway, everyone should vote regardless of either the current polls or the same-day polls!

IMHO.
