Fox just said Ron Paul is probably getting Santorum and Gingrich votes since they were shut out of the VA. primary. LOL! They are reporting a close race in Ohio between Romney and Santorum. How can they call VA. so quickly with such a small percentage in?

Normally they use exit polls. They are much more prevalent than even a few years ago. Hire a bunch of college kids on the cheap who phone in the numbers.

What I haven't seen is a historical look at how exit polls compare to actual ballot tallys.
