exit polling
Post-ballot questionnaires
Exit polling is the practice of surveying voters as they leave polling places to predict election outcomes before official results are tallied.
News organizations use exit polls to call races early and analyze voting patterns by demographic groups: Exit polling showed younger voters broke heavily for the challenger.
The data also helps explain why people voted as they did.
