jimbol23: The Cold War is back. I hope you're on America's side.

Nevertheless, FL-engineer makes a valid and rational observation that people in formerly Eastern bloc nations are unlikely to reply honestly to political opinion polls, including exit polls. And I speak as someone who traveled behind the Iron Curtain (and had relatives there) while it was still up.

I did not think about this before, but it is true! I myself do NOT always answer polls "honestly" :) That is why the actual election choice is secret (not only in the Eastern Europe)
