Please explain the following in layman's terms. It's very important that people understand this--and I don't fully.
"The paper that US Count Votes will be releasing in a few days clearly shows that the patterns in the Edison/Mitofsky exit polls can only be reproduced by a combination of small Kerry exit poll response bias and significant shifting of votes cast for Kerry to Bush."
What does "small Kerry exit poll response" mean? Small WHAT (voter response to exit pollsters? low level of response from Kerry voters? ???). And then what does, "small Kerry exit poll response BIAS" mean? (--bias toward or against what? bias with what result? ???)
The meaning of "significant shifting of votes cast for Kerry to Bush" seems clear, but what does "a combination of" mean? How are you combining these things, and what does it mean that "the patterns in E/M" can "only be reproduced" by this combination?
Staticians often speak in this weird backward way, that requires a lot of translation. I cannot seem to get the plain meaning of this.

Please take advantage of all these news room fax numbers below. They are not easy to obtain--lots of research. And faxes have much higher attention value than emails. (Phone calls are the best--get editor to commit, talk to reporter).
MIAMA
The Miami Herald is a pretty kick-ass newspaper. Definitely fax and call their news room. Don't have at my fingertips what reporters have covered elections, but a quick Google search should turn them up.

SOME OTHER SUGGESTIONS (sorry, don't have contacts)
Jim Lampley - sports writer/commentator - very good on election fraud/reform! (famous)
The New Yorker
The Nation
Vanity Fair
Christopher Hitchens
Keith Olberman
The Lone Star Iconoclast (very, very kickass newpaper in Bush home town, Crawford, TX)
Knight-Ridder (!!!!!!)
Agence France Presse
Reuters
BBC News (--they seem to have reporter/video units all over US, and they get around)
Al-Jazeera (--might like to compare Bush democracy rhetoric re Iraq with reality in U.S.)
International Herald Tribune
Scoop.com (New Zealand)
Air America, of course. (Randi Rhodes, Mike Malloy, Janine Garofola)
Some of the usual suspects, maybe--New York Times (warmongers but maybe would like to save their soul), Washington Post (ugh), Philadelphia Inquirer (used to be good on investigations), Los Angeles Times (pretty good investigative reports on some things but very snotty on election fraud/reform), ABCNBCCBSCNNFOXTIMEWARNER (it would be convenient if they had just one generic blackhole into which to deposit vital info about our democracy).
