[Physltest] [Phys-L] Re: Are the Forces of Darkness on the March?



Hi!

In my country (Mexico) exit pollsters are precise.
Mexican laws accept exit polls when people is going out of the place where
they voted,
but exit pollsters can not say their results until the end (normallye 6
P.M.). Besides, there are another system,
named "fast counting", such that a number of places are taken at random to
see the the actual number of votes. This result is obtained one or two hours
later.

The first system gets 1%-2% of error, and the second get < = 1.5%.
Statistics works very well.

Thanks

Arnulfo Castellanos-Moreno.
