Original Data Source: CNN Exit Poll.
Percentages may not add up to 100% when all categories or candidates are not shown. Numbers based on preliminary exit poll results.
How the poll was conducted: The National Election Pool Exit Poll was conducted by Edison/Mitofsky. Members of the pool are ABC, AP, CBS, CNN, Fox and NBC. The polling places are a stratified probability sample of the state. In addition, absentee and/or early voters were interviewed in a pre-election telephone poll; results from the phone poll were combined with results from the exit poll. The combination reflects approximately the correct proportion of absentee voters and election day voters. |
