Didn’t they say that Texas voters have been voting for several days now, that they didn’t have to wait until today? How are those early voters factored into the exit polls? Or aren’t they?
If a significant percentage voted earlier than today in Texas, and they aren’t exit-polled, what good are those polls?

A lot of us voted early. No one is there to do exit-polls.

They provide the Mainstream Mediots grist to keep the mill turning until the actual results are reported.

Texas early voting opened two weeks ago, although it stopped after last Friday.

The turnout was huge.

There were no exit pollers.
