Please stop claiming results are in before the polls close |
|
It's rude to people who haven't voted yet, makes your candidate look bad, and offends supporters of the other candidate. Analyzing exit polls is fun but claiming a win on the basis of limited polling is foolish and embarrassing.
Frankly, I don't think any reputable news organization, blogger, or commentator should be quoting exit polls on an election day. It devalues the whole process of voting.
Thank you.

1. But it makes them feel, I don't know....God-like...handing out information |
|
when they deem 'proper'...you know all of them like to see themselves as, if not President-makers, shapers of the masses.

3. I agree. It is irresponsible and based on leaks not real data. |
|
But, I fear you are spitting into the wind.
