The National Election Pool

The National Election Pool (NEP) is a coalition of major US news organizations that work together to conduct exit polls during elections. It gathers voter data by surveying a representative sample of voters as they leave polling stations. This information helps media outlets analyze and predict election results accurately and rapidly. The NEP's collaboration ensures consistency and reliability in national election reporting, providing the public with timely insights into voting patterns and outcomes based on comprehensive and well-designed polling methods.
