Sure, those exit polls also included independents that weren't eligible to vote. LiberalFighter Apr 2016 #12

Uh...an exit poll is taken as people leave the polls. jeff47 Apr 2016 #19

Exit polls arent real. They gave huge sample bias. JaneyVee Apr 2016 #39

Oh really? ThirdWayToTheHighway Apr 2016 #49

How about because Independents are largely voting for the Democratic Party? randome Apr 2016 #53

Please, get a a source for that ThirdWayToTheHighway Apr 2016 #56

I can't prove a negative, no. randome Apr 2016 #120

Your point is valid. Problem for me is the history of fraud in elections goes waaaay back. snowy owl Apr 2016 #131

Yes it should happen. JaneyVee Apr 2016 #63

Do you understand the concept of "margin of error"? jeff47 Apr 2016 #65

Exit polls arent real. They are invalid and have huge sample bias. JaneyVee Apr 2016 #69
