I do believe in exit polling
I do believe in exit polling. Why? Well first of all the obvious with Ukraine. Second of all here in my town we've been having a mayoral race. All throughout the campaign the new mayor was in the lead in all the polls and he won. Here we use paper ballots to where you take a sharpie pen and you bubble next to the canidate you wish to elect. The polls are open from 8am-8pm est. Each time I've gone to vote I go around 12:30pm est and there's never any lines and yesterday I was number 161. We knew the winner by 10pm eastern. If polls work here in my area surely they work in other areas. I know not everybody likes to tell who they voted for but for the most part people will tell you because they are very proud of the person they're voting for. Just wanted to share my personal experience with exit polling.
