Polling finishes in around 20 minutes, the first results, from small islands, are expected very quickly, results from Amsterdam and Rotterdam should be declared around midnight. There has already been a very high turnout. Depending on the result, this could be the end of the eu.

I think you are confusing exit polls with opinion polls that were held leading up to both votes.

ISTR exit polls were reasonably accurate, it was the opinion polls leading up to them that were wrong.
