Are the MSM outlets still refusing to release exit poll results?
Aside from splintered demographics, I can't find any results. The elephant is simply not in the room.

Here's my guess as to why. Earlier DU posts mentioned a serious anomaly. The exit polls that at least one poster found for MT and VA varied by 3-4% pts each way for a 6+% swing. (I'd like to confirm this, but there was no link.) Of the 5 other states that were in play for the Senate, none varied by more than 1%. It looks like they tried to softly slide in just enough votes to keep control, but they misunderestimated their pathetic lack of appeal. If the Repukes try to actually contest VA, they run the risk that the Dems will go after the voting machines. Interesting conundrum. I say, Bring em On!

Does anyone know where the exit polls are?

1. There were no exit polls on the House from what I understood.

3. Those were early exit polls, as of about 5 PM.
They wouldn't have reflected people who voted after business hours, who probably would have trended Republican. I'm not saying that there's no possibility of some fraud, but it's probably not all that big.
