Are there exit polls in NJ?? Huff Post has an AP story up saying
Edited on Tue Nov-08-05 06:47 PM by Gloria
Corzine is the winner.

Of course, maybe it's a story planted to keep Dems AT HOME and not voting????

LATE
CORRECTION: THE AP isn't the source of the story....it's just the AP picture of Corzine after he voted..

5. No exit polls.
As far as I know, there are no exit polls in NJ this year.

The Huffington post is jumping the gun on both the Corzine win and the Codey appointment.

Take it easy. It's only two hours until the real info comes out.

9. That's what I thought...no exit polls...but what are they talking about?
Edited on Tue Nov-08-05 06:46 PM by Gloria
Who is telling Huff that there are exit polls with these results??

The story ISN'T from AP, by the way....that was the source of the picture of Corzine with the thumbs up sign as he finished voting....

Please note the correction!!

6. Just a thought
:tinfoilhat: time:

Do you think it's possible that it's part of the repug playbook to mess with the exit polls? For example, telling their sheeple to claim they voted Dem so it stacks for Dem's then people don't show up to vote because they feel they don't need to?

10. This is the email I sent to the Huffington Post
What kind of exit polls are you using?

This is important, because the RNC is less likely to hack the vote in a meaningful way if they think they will get caught. You are giving Dems a false sense of confidence if you say there are exit polls and all you have is the pre-election polls and estimates of turn out based on sex and race.



The GOP’s last minute slime campaign could be used to “explain” a sudden flip flop of the numbers, “Wow, looks like all those women who voted today must have voted for the Republican based on what his ex-wife said.”



So, please, what kind of “exit polls” are you using and which organization have you hired?
