Exit pollsters who presented a woefully inaccurate map of Tuesday’s election outcome are searching for clues as to why their results differed so vastly from the final figures.
Perhaps the Israeli’s are lying to their pollsters just like we do here?
You just can’t depend on Exit Polling ... that’s the problem in a nutshell!
BUT it did give Netanyahu and the Likud a BOOST in their final votes, because they thought they were losing and so doubled their efforts, and got good results as a consequence of those Exit Polls ... :-) ...
or perhaps the exit polling was skewed towards certain voters?
I remember hearing that people were congratulating John Kerry and calling him “Mr. President” on the afternoon of election day 2004, based on early exit polls that day. It turned out, that those exit polls were from more Democrat and early in the day voters. Republican leaning voters tend to go to work, and vote after work, and so were not counted in those early exit polls.
Israelis are very likely to lie to exit pollsters. It’s small country (pop. like Wisconsin, but without neighboring states), and everybody knows your business. Switching parties too openly can cause you grief in your social circles.

Because the left, including those in pop culture, the media, and academia have accomplished their goal of making conservatism something to hide from or apologize for.
IMO, the primary purpose of exit pollsters is to influence the vote of those yet to vote. Their objective is to influence the trendy people who want to "vote for the winner" and those who say "why bother?" if their candidate appears to be losing.
Actually very few pollsters give you an accurate reading from their polls. Their polls are always slanted by their political bias, one way or the other!!! Obama ordered his left-wing “Bibi” haters to do his bidding...it did not work!!! Forget the polls in the world of today...thy have lost all merit and honesty!!! “Bibi, now , needs Obama for nothing!!!
Bibi is now going to hook in with Eygpt, Saudia Arabia, Jordan, etc. and they are going to spike all of Obama’s love, adorees, ISIS/the Muslim Brotherhood, the Iranians, & Al Qaeda, big time. Obama is now the lamest of POTUS “Lame Ducks” in history, Obama and his media is just simply to dumb to realize it!!!
