Exit Polls 2010 Election |Where Is The Exit Polling

as was reported yesterday ,the polls will close on the east coast in a couple of hours and exit polls will soon start to project the winner of various 2010 elections. There is a lot at stake in this years elections where Republicans are slated to gain control of the House and possibly the Senate. Also weighing heavily on the outcome of this election is 37 races for Governor which is also considered important since the Census results will cause redistricting over the next couple og years and the Governor will have a lot to do with it. Many News organizations will start to call races based on exit polls before any actual results are in. While exit polls can predict the winner of an election this is not good practice as they can be misleading. Exit polls should be used as a judgment in the sentiment of the mood of the people, not to predict what the final result should be, but in this time of the fastest news wins, people will sometimes use the Exit polls results in a manner to get the jump on their competition. Exit Polls may predict correctly at times, but its best to at least wait until some results are coming in before race are called.
