THE ONLY THING EXIT POLLS TELL US:
Is the rough breakdown of demographics. Any exit polls regarding the final vote should be taken with an extremely large grain of salt.

3. Exit polls have been instituted globally for years as a safe guard against election fraud.
They've only been discredited since our election systems have been privatized by the likes of partisan corporations such as Diebold and all.

Oh joy.

5. Exit polls in places like the Ukarine - greatly indicative of the voter's intent
But if the poll is done here in the uSA, then it indicates NADA!

6. They tell us by what margin Diebold cheated.....

Until 2000... exit polls were considered VERY reliable.


What happened? That was the beginning of the Diebold-ization of the vote in America.
