Anyone seeing any exiting polls?
My wife was wondering about that. She's surfed the major news chanels and usually they report on the big races like a liberman race.

2. Interesting... Seems interesting that they won't be released until 8PM
Wonder if they are afraid that the exiting polls won't reflect the Diebold rigging.

3. No Diebold in CT. Exit polls, since the 2000 election, haven't been
released until voting is over. (remember Repugs and their complaints about the Florida panhandle?).

4. As opposed to early calls by the media which can depress turnout?
I rather exit polls be held until polls close.

That said I have no issue with exit polls being released prior to the counting being finished.
