OK Boys And Girls... How Dumb Is An "Entrance Poll" At An Iowa Democratic Caucus ???

[WillyT]

Considering you might come in (entrance) supporting one candidate, and leave (exit) having voted for another.

2. Actually, it's a good idea. It provides an idea of how preferences changed during the process.

Considering how much time was spent on DU talking about second choices, knowing where they actually went could be useful information.

3. Not especially reliable, I'd think.

This won't be over until it's over, so to speak.

6. It would be very valuable to compare to an exit poll

9. Apparently, we're the only two who think so.

All anyone has talked about for days is the process, second choices, who would make deals with whom, etc., so the entrance vs. exit poll data would seem to be rather important.

10. Exactly - analyze the difference and you have some valuable data

7. Really dumb, IMHO.

It's not the same kind of thing as casting a vote.
