If I were polled, I’d lie about my vote...I find it hard to believe there aren’t many out there who would do the same.

They are removing the partisan make up of the exit polls, basically making them even less useful and less accurate.

Huge cover-up .. Current polls skewed in Obama’s favor, voter fraud, no exit polls and foreign Spanish company SCYTL counting votes is huge attempt to squash the majority by hiding the true results.

This is a blatant attempt to PROLONG the result on election night.

I garauntee all 19 states are probably DEEP RED states — and what will happen is this:

With no exit poll these states that would have been called IMMEDIATELY upon the polls closing will be labeled TOO CLOSE TO CALL as there is no exit poll data to base a call on — so they will wait late into the night until the results for the state are so obvious they HAVE TO CALL IT.

They will use this to try and create the perception of a close race where even the normally SAFE REP states are TOO CLOSE TOO CALL.

That is what I am wondering. Funny how this came out after the debate.

There are a smaller number of states needed to win an election. With the EC votes, no one really cares how most of the midwest goes.

Exit polls won't capture early voting.

After last nights debate the early voting will not help Obama.

Let me guess, they fear actual exit polls in 17 of those 19 states would belie the results the Soros owned Spanish based Scytl corporation has already determined?

"It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything."

Oregon has voted by mail for over a decade now. Exit polls are not possible.

As more of the electorate opts for absentee ballots, exit polls become unbalanced and useless.

Mainstream media is also going broke, so they are cutting expenses and useless exit polls is an obvious place to cut.

Spell check doesn’t catch all spelling errors. I’m sure you meant college as a collage is a type of artwork. Didn’t they teach teach you that in public skool?

They could save even more money by just doing an exit poll of guys in his old Chicago neighborhood.

Medical records are what interest me in terms of now. Why hide them unless there is something ugly in them? Same true for college records, but they can’t help much, unless he is more phoney than we all think.
