This isn't making sense.  

Granted we haven't got any hard information but the exit polling is too much in accordance with the pre-election polls - which didn't predict the large turnout.

So either the banileus (sp?) is voting for Sakozy or the polling models are wrong.

Charitably, perhaps the 'I'm not telling you' effect was overestimated. And the undecideds broke in similar numbers to the decideds and declareds.

Uncharitably - who knows? It's a good point. Perhaps they're just re-quoting the polls and not doing proper exit vote counting at all. (Although I wouldn't guess that was very likely.)

Brain went faster than my fingers.  Make that "exit poll models."

On the other hand, if it turns-out I'm right I promise to be insufferable for the next 2 weeks.  ;-)
