Does the RNC or their machine tell their people to lie to exit pollers? |
|
I think they want to blow the whole exit polling process out of the water so that it can never again be used as a tool to see how a race is going. Am I wearing a tin foil hat today?

2. The most trustworthy poll |
|
is an exit poll. People have just voted. They have already put their support in for their candidate. Some may lie but these would be few & far between.

Many people (I can't quantify) vote early or absentee - thus NO exit polls. How does this affect exit polling on November 7?
Anyone have data on this?

4. i would not be surprised |
|
AT ALL. especially since they are trying, in some places, (like ohio iirc) to keep them outside the 100 electioneering zone. they know this makes the polls less accurate.

5. This is an old technique |
|
Before the demise of exit polls, they we're obsessed about it. Reason being? Exit polls catch fraud.
Can't have that, can we?
