Has anyone who has already voted been "exit polled"?
I think that with the doubts floating around about how the voting machines may be manipulated it would be imperative to do exit polling. I don't believe it is being done though. Anyone able to shed some light?

1. ABC News exit-polled early voters this week but didn't
widely publish the results - did anyone see them?

2. Don't think that was an exit poll

IIRC, and assuming we're talking about the same poll, they conducted a general poll, including the question "Have you already voted?", which is what gave 'em the results they reported.

Of course, I could be wrong...

(editing to add: no, unaware of any exit polling being done at early voting locations)

3. I can only go on what I've heard, and that was, early voting was
favoring Kerry.

5. I don't remember where I saw it but
ABC did show their exit poll results so far.

Bush* was only leading 51% - 47% in the states that allow early voting. Keep in mind, most of the states that vote early are RED states. This means * is already doing bad in his own states!
