Exit Poll!!


So I am back in Utah once again to finish up my last year of school. I graduate in April as a Statistics major. Yipee!! It it so close, yet so far away. I am taking 14 credits this semester which is 5 stats classes. It sounds like a lot but it hasn't been too bad. Two of the classes (5 of the credits hours) are dedicated to the same thing so I really only have 4 classes.
This semester I am participating in the Utah Colleges Exit Poll. (this is my 5 credit class). What we do is go out on election day and go to some polling places and interview voters as they come out. We then take that data and predict who is going to win. As of yesterday I got put in charge of the Design Team. What I do as Design Leader is decide which counties were are going to cover, which polling places we are going to go to and how many people we need to interview. It is a big job but I have some great people on my team helping me out. So go out and VOTE!!!
