Which website is the best to follow up its results and latest news ?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I'd check this site for the results of exit polls.
http://ap.org/

However, for frequent updates, I'd check a site like www.cnn.com

I currently have CNN, foxnews, and USAToday open. I'd be very wary of exit polls if you remember what happened last time - pay attention to how many precincts are reporting in each projection.
