The Exit Pollsters were too young, because the avg. age was 34?
Is that older or younger than the people who conducted previous Exit Polls?

Did they record the age of respondents?

1. Sounds like a stretch..
but it might be the case, my brother has always said it, the Repubs just don't like to get polled.
Oh, and he says previous exit polls have always skewed towards democrats.
Maybe there is something to this theory, I don't know.
Either way, if we fix Voting, this wont be a question any longer.

3. if the Repubs don't like to get polled, how did the media start telling
us the day after the election that it was the evengelicals and the "moral values" people who pushed over the top for Bush?

2. I still like the answer I saw posted on DU the other day.
"maybe more kerry supporters were polled because there were more kerry supporters"
