4. how many data points
do we need to recognize that exit polls are inherently unreliable.

im not saying there was or wasn't chicanery. i am just saying that anomalies between exit polls and vote results suggest in general that exit polling is a poor methodology for collecting accurate results as to how people actually voted.

there are numerous theories on this, but it just seems pretty clear that exit polling shows mass suckitude
