From what I can tell, US exit polls are between 80% & 98% bullshit.
The data/calls that matter are made by the AP and delivered in realtime through their API.
Access to their api is very very expensive.
Some of the larger newssites with big budgets will autopublish these AP calls / integrate them into their maps/ breaking news feeds etc.
AP are (I think) the only organisation who have a significant number of people on the ground gathering actual voting data.0 -

For people obsessing over Betfair, look at how much has been matched and then how little in comparative terms it takes to move the odds.
You are looking for something decisive, e.g. Trump comes into 5 and keeps dropping and so on. At this time the bounces look like market housekeeping.0 -

Well the republican strategist/spokesperson on Newsnight has gone out of her way to emphasise that she isn't personally supporting Trump.

"While exit polls are not the best at measuring the racial composition of the electorate, it does seem that minority turnout is way up in Florida. In the preliminary exit polls, 39 percent of voters were people of color. That compares to just 33 percent in 2012."

At the end of the day, the factor about Trump that bothers me most is his unpredictability. America could survive a sexist, bit of idiot. But who knows where an unpredictable president might take them, holes so deep they'd take years to recoverSeanT said:

I'm not sure about that. Part of the reason Trump was able to turn the tables on the initial expected PC attacks was because of the lustre of success and his brash personality.
