election verification exit poll
Definition
- AN ELECTION VERIFICATION exit poll (EVEP) is a relatively new concept in exit polling, differing in approach and purpose from traditional exit polls, usually done for the media. The purpose of a media exit poll is to strategically poll many precincts to obtain a representative sample for an entire district (such as a state or city) so that election outcomes can be predicted.
