Exit polls: Drudge moves Ohio to Toss up

For what it's worth. The first wave of exit polls had Drudge putting Ohio with an edge to President Obama. Now, Drudge has moved Ohio to a "Toss UP" as voting enters a later hour

No need for a comment. The stakes should be as obvious to us as they were to the heroes who approached Omaha Beach in tiny boats on an early June day in 1944, knowing the future of civilization was on the line.

Thank goodness for this move. I still don’t believe exit polls, including this one. Like all the other polls, these polls are probably over sample Democrats by a wide margin.

Republicans bulk of them still at work,would only trust an exit poll if voting had ended at precinct.

I noticed that...probably had a call or two from someone on site who told him he was FOS with that leaning O.

Now, one more tick to R and that one is in the bag.

275 for Romney is still my count regardless of these polls albeit they do unnerve me when I actually look at them.

And in the same breath, has a link to the 2004 exit poll in accuracies. Drudge fishing for hits?

Drudge makes money from web hits and this is pure gold for Drudge. He keeps the nervous clicking refresh for hours as his ad revenue climbs. Only 19 states are being polled and every media outlet’s poll that I have seen have been widely apart with no consensus.

This is news?! Ohio has been classified a “toss up” for months.

BTW, exit polls are completely unreliable. Let’s wait for the real votes to come through.

In 2004, the Rats started calling Kerry “President”. He obviously isn’t.

Is he already calling PA for Obama? I just can’t believe we’d know that already.

I’d rather give it to Drudge than to the alphabet MSM.

Rush said today he got a call from an exit poll worker who was told to not approach any white elderly voters. That would skew a poll, for sure.

That does it for me. I'm out of here for an hour or so. Not one single poll has closed in any state yet, and everyone here is wetting themselves with the most ridiculous -- and *unwarranted* -- displays of defeatism I've seen in a long time.

The rules of engagement at Normandy were unaffected by the “cheating” of the enemy. Our enemy embraces cheating and we can’t shoot them. Until that changes our constitution will continue to be erased from the memories of our public school-educated, liberal media informed and pampered fellow Americans.
