So, when leaving our polling place this morning, there was a woman sitting outside the booth asking people to fill out a "poll" for "the media". The ballot was supposed to be private/confidential and put into a box. Appeared to be a legitimate exit poll. Except that she was only asking men to fill them out. I stood there for 20 minutes watching her and she only approached men. In fact, she ignored me altogether, but asked my husband to fill one out. I saw her ignoring numerous other women as well. Won't asking only one type of person skew the exit polls therefore skewing the media reports therefore skewing people's beliefs about whether they should go out and vote if they think the election is going one way or another?
And why is it when I tell people about this, no one seems to care?
