My personal opinion is that that ANY election polls should be not be released/broadcast until after ALL the polling places have closed. Although it would NEVER keep me from going to the polls or persuade me to leave a poll or any such thing, some people ARE swayed with such news.

Remember Election 2000 ? The media was projecting winners in the Presidential race BEFORE SOME PARTS OF FLORIDA were closed (heavily GOP areas, military voters, etc.) ??

I would think we'd learn from those things and put the muzzle on stuff like that, but I guess not ...

The news organizations were so ignorant that they did not realize that FL has TWO time zones. Further proof the media is ignorant and uneducated.
