From an article in the new (November issue. p. 33) Atlantic magazine:

(snip)

"The National Election Pool--the outfit that runs the exit polls--has made one useful concession to reality and set out to stop leaks from racing across the Web, hitting upon an ingeniously low-tech solution to a high-tech problem. This year the pollsters will be placed in a 'quarantine room' and stripped of cell phones, pagers, Internet access, and other means of outside communication. They won't be allowed back into the electronic real world until many hours later."

So, don't be counting on exit poll results to tell us whether the elections were hacked. Before you see the exit poll results, the data will be massaged until they match the 'official' tallies.

OT.

are ya feeling safa ?

UNIREALIST,.. Comment # 1,..

You got that right,..
if we get bogus exit polls,.. and they are able to fudge those figures at will without our knowledge. Then they can readily fudge the vote tabulations coming from the electronic voting machines.

In the absence of honest bonafied exit poll data they are at the liberty to steal the election,.. without having left foot prints indicating there was a theft.

These fascists will employ every trick from the Rove - Hijack The Election Book.

Kinda like a free speech zone for pollsters, eh Uni ?

Look when I said the same thing here

We're getting pretty good at this stuff, or they're getting more transparent

Ohio voters are now required to provide proof of identity before voting. The form of identification that you may use includes your current and valid state-issued photo identification card, military identification, copy of utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, government check, or government document showing your name and current address. (Note: You cannot use as proof of identification a notice that the board of elections mailed to you.) If you do not have, or fail or refuse to provide, the required proof of identity, you may cast a provisional ballot.

R.C. 3503.28(A)(1)(6)
Voters must bring identification to the polls in order to verify identity. Identification may include a current and valid photo identification, a military identification that shows the voter's name and current address, or a copy of a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or other government document, other than a reminder or a voter registration notification, that shows the voter's name and current address. Voters who do not provide one of these documents will still be able to vote by providing the last four digits of the voter's social security number and by casting a provisional ballot.
Voters who do not have any of the above forms of identification, including a social security number, will still be able to vote by signing an affirmation swearing to the voter's identity under penalty of election falsification and by casting a provisional ballot.
(The above requirement is effective June 1, 2006)

If George Soros had ANY brains at all he would put up the $5,000,000 necessary to have fair and impartial exit polling done in every single congressional district in America --- EVERY SINGLE ONE!

And all the data staight to a farm of web servers putting it out to the world.

With the soundtrack "the whole world is watching" playing under the display of the data.

But, alas, capital is capital and power is power, so we are going to get screwed again. And when it is all over, the mainstream media is going to screw us over one more time by telling us all those "Republican upsets" were totally legitimate.

Shouldn't results in precincts where they demand photo IDs be immediately challenged in courts?

Those votes should be tossed out, forcing a new election.

Get Ready for Another Stolen Election

Polls showing a Democratic landslide assume a fraud-free election.

Will the GOP steal the election again?
Does Diebold switch votes?
Can there be any doubt?
The Repugs have stolen the last three elections.
It's the only way they can win.

Bush and Cheney are confident that they will retain the House and Senate.

Why?

They have the means: The DREs are certified to be hacked.

They have the motive: They fear Democratic investigations into 9/11, Iraq, torture, warrantless spying, the outing of Valerie Plame, etc....

They have the opportunity: The Dems who could have done something about HAVA are still drinking DLC kool-aid.

Here is the trend in Generic House of Representative Congressional polls over the past 12 months:

I knew it!

In 2004, they worked on making sure the final count discrepancy was JUST large enough to prevent recounts, and this time they have to make to exit polls coincide with the voting results.

If George Soros had ANY brains at all he would....

Sorry to be a buzzkill, Charlie but do you really think this billionaire, Soros, is stupid? He knows exactly, his role as Left Gatekeeper.

Do something but never enough. Never anything that truly challenges the system. In classic reformist style, he does some things but never enough to truly change things or satisfy the people. Thus he keeps his fans always clamoring for him to stop being 'stupid' and do more.

Gimme a break.

He's obviously a part of the MoveOn-DFA-PDA gatekeeper crowd that exist to make sure that while serious change never happens enough change does happen that we don't lose faith in the system and scrap the whole thing.

Regarding the GA letters, they are now talking about sending correction letters out to people, adding to the confusion.

And if the letters themselves weren't enough, they took the scattershot approach in sending them. Anyone who had a name that resembled someone in the dbase they thought didn't have a valid ID, got a letter. I've talked to people that have had valid ID for a decade that got the letter saying they might not be able to vote.

Intentional confusion by the Georgia State Board of Elections which is populated by five people, four of whom are Republicans.
