Polls questioned, call for investigation

VoterElection results looked nothing like the polls — what gives?  Fox News suggest that while midterm elections were supposed to be nail-biters, from Sen. Mitch McConnell’s re-election race in Kentucky to veteran Sen. Pat Roberts’ battle in Kansas. The too-close-to-call refrain was expected to be heard throughout the night.
