商品簡介
Exit polls are regarded as a boon by some and a bane by others. While democracy, of which elections are an integral part, has now existed for some time in history, exit polls are a relatively recent phenomenon, having emerged only in the last century. Their workings, from the beginning, have prompted questions about their predictability, accountability, and accuracy. In the game of numbers and probabilities, while at times they have hit the bull's eye, they have also often derailed the hopes of the masses and the masters. The 2024 General Elections in India became the posterchild for the latter instance. The off-track numbers brought to light the past misses, a showdown at the Indian stock exchange, and dramatic political flare-ups. The predictions in India and some other countries have, over the years, gone wrong far too often to ignore, making the public as well as experts suspicious of the electoral exercise. Nevertheless, they have also hit a few sixes that now stand overshadowed. To denounce and cast away exit polls for their poor success rate would be like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. At this juncture where their credibility is in question, Assumptions or Over-Assumptions brings to readers a deep dive into the history, law, sociology, economics and politics of exit polls, with a special focus on India. While they stand in the court of audience today, it is equally imperative for us-the audience in question-to evaluate and consider the benefits of exit polls more than their setbacks and losses.
