I can suggest a simple solution....  A***oles like me who lied to exit
poll takers.  I was sick of what exit polls did to the 200 election so I
lied.

The broader issue is:

1.) There were multiple polling companies that conducted exit polls
including teams from both campaigns.

2.) We don't know what caused the anomaly.

I'm not convinced of anything yet because I don't think we have enough
data to conclusively say anything, and that's the problem, that's the
broader issue: that we don't know conclusively.

I'm not able to write it off as, "oh well, the system's messy".  If
that's the case why not just call in the President like an American
Idol contestant?  Why have any standards?  Let's just write it all off
as "democracy's messy" and leave it at that.

And therein lies the problem: mediocrity.  If mediocrity is good
enough for the majority, even when it comes to democracy, then we
don't deserve democracy.
