It’s 6:00 on the East coast. We should be getting some raw exit poll data anytime now.
Chris Cillizza’s online column in the WaPo:
“The early exit polls in Virginia and New Jersey are in (out?) and the most striking thing to us in the data is that a majority of voters in both states said that President Barack Obama was not a factor in their vote[...]
While these are early returns [...] they do suggest that Obama’s role in determining the outcome of either race (for good or bad) may have been overstated [...]
And for those who want to know what the head-to-head matchups look like in the exit polls, you’re out of luck. No data about the direction of a specific race can be released until polls close in a particular state.”
