Handing away your democracy for financial benefit is just not something we should support. | ||

This is a unique vote, which will be reported by local authorities that do not tally geographically – or demographically – with general election voting wards. Voter allegiance also does not split along party lines, so pollsters would have to make a number of assumptions. Not sure how valid that is. | ||

Highly doubt it - answer to the first one. And no exit polls because the influence on current polling is considered a criminal offence. Subjects which have been contested or are part of the campaign in any way - or other controversial matters relating to the EU or the referendum - must not be covered on polling day, to ensure the BBC's output cannot be seen as influencing the ballot while the polls are open. However, online sites will not have to remove archived reports. Coverage is restricted to uncontroversial factual accounts, such as the appearance of politicians and others at polling stations or the weather. Publishing information setting out the practicalities involved in helping people to vote, such as when the polls are open, the wording of the question, expectations of when the result may be known, etc. are allowed, but the BBC stops short of actually encouraging people to vote. While the polls are open, it is a criminal offence for anyone, not just broadcasters, to publish anything about the way in which people have voted in the referendum, where that is based on information given by voters after they have voted. That includes, of course, anything emerging from exit polls (which, by definition, are asking people how they actually voted), although the broadcasters themselves have not commissioned any exit polls for this vote. In addition, no opinion poll on any issue relating to the referendum can be published by broadcasters until after the polls have closed. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36599900 | ||

I thought that was common practice anyway with any exit poll in any (european) country. | ||

When Fox realised Al Gore was winning the election, they falsely announced that Bush had won, giving him a last minute momentum swing. Together with Jeb's help, they managed to cheat him into office. | ||
