It’s entirely rational given modern technology.

So what...we have technology that can give us exit polling data in states where the polls haven't even opened yet? I'm amazed.

There's a DeLorean involved.

I expect you can search high and low and not find my suggesting other than access to exit polling that does exist. However, they would have early exit polling combined with late yesterday and overnight polling to go with it.

As of yesterday, McCain was ahead by 18 points over Romney in national polling. Given that this Super Tuesday is “nearly” a national election, that is very significant.

Combined with New York, Georgia, and New Jersey early data comprising about 200 delegates, I’d say that the media is in a good position to have some clear statistical insight.
