As has been pointed out many times here at DU, exit polls are used around the world to verify elections.

Rig the election, blame the disparity between the exit-polling numbers and the votes cast on the exit-polls themselves, then make a move to ban exit-polling.
Before long, all rational thought will be outlawed, as it is hostile to the GOP agenda.

11. Why not? They've already ended transparent elections. |

And America seems to be fine with it, apart from a few conspiracy kooks.

There's the proof right there, kill the messenger. Now I know there was fraud. Why don't they now just have elections like Saddam did? Exit polls are supposed to guard against fraud, being it was so far off, get rid of the only protection against fraud there is.

And thieves want to eliminate locks!
It is such a mystery that so many Democrats are joining the RNC and are trying to suppress the call for an investigation into this election.
Debunkers - rather than ridiculing your comrades here, how about explaining to us why the chairman of the RNC would be calling for the end of exit polls today?
