Actually, this is leaked exit polling - has been leaked by multiple media sources.

Exactly! No ETHICAL news outlet should be reporting exit polling announcing vote winners and losers before the polls close. This article describes “leaked” CBS News exit poll results. Even if that is true, it is still unethical to report this.

this is only the early afternoon exit polling, results can be slightly different in later runs when the after work voters come in.

this system is not infallable, or the market betting prediction sites would be all over to make money off of the reports

released 3 hours before the polls close in the west? Maybe DT’s supporters won’t bother.

No, it's standard. Happens every election.

Info is embargoed but info is typically leaked.

It's EXIT polling, not official vote results, so it's not always right.

For example, exit polling had Kerry winning in 2004.

This is the artist behind Dilbert, who is kind of a smart guy (Google his bonafides outside of cartoons) has made accurate predictions on Trump and why he will beat Clinton in a landslide probably of historic proportions.

“released 3 hours before the polls close in the west? Maybe DT’s supporters won’t bother.”

Maybe Cruzers will think they won, and stay home.

Some guy says he has “Leaked exit polling” and Cruzers believe him. Funny

"I just cast my fourth vote for Ted"

Big deal. In two weeks when Illinois has its primary, thousands of dead people in Chicago will be casting their fourth vote of the day for Hillary!

They always talk about Cruz dropping out when it’s Rubio who really needs to be called out.

That is not the point. The point is NO EXIT POLLS announcing WINNERS and LOSERS should be published before the polls close. That is downright unethical and at the very least interferes with the election. Some “news” outlets may release early bits of trivia from exit polling, like voter turnout, racial makeup, age makeup… that does not declare winners and losers.

The young folks like Bernie, but moreover they hate Hillary. Absolutely hate her. Something like 90% dislike her.

if anything, the fact that some voters know that Cruz is up by less than 5% in afternoon Texas exit polling probably helps MORE Trump or Cruz voters to go to the polls

I always ask them if they think mom and dad get to keep the 4000 sq foot house in Bernie’s utopia.
