THIS TIME, RESULTS WILL BE QUARANTINED FROM PUNDITS
The television networks' exiting polling will flow only through The Quarantine Room Tuesday night. "Somewhere in New York City, at an undisclosed location, there's a quarantine room, in which up to three members of each network will be present, reviewing the data, starting in the morning," explained Sheldon Gawiser, NBC director of elections. "They will be locked in that room until 5 p.m. They will have no cell phones and pagers. The wireless will be turned off on all their computers. If they go to the bathroom, they have to have a monitor."
