Diebold is based in Ohio. Florida uses Diebold. Exit poll discrepancies in those two states. I believe I KNOW what happened, but what do I do to prove it?A historical document. While A. and I were internet-less in Pennsylvania, I kept texting Mike begging for the latest news. I'm gonna switch cell phones and lose my messages soon, so here are his dispatches:
Early exit polls r great. All swing states kerry. Grain of salt. Turnout overwhelming. Pa 60-40. Ohio 52 48. Fla 51 48.
All the news is still good. Bush crashing on tradesports.com
New poll, ohio & fla both 50-49 kerry
Zogby predicts kerry over 300 evs.ButSenate looks bad. Sorry about egg. No serious polling irregularities.
The day of canvassing was over. We piled on the bus and turned on NPR. The rest of our night was probably not too different from yours.

ahhhhh reality-based vs faith-based:
exit poll correlations for 'how well are things going for US in Iraq' and banning same-sex marriages:
HOW ARE THINGS GOING FOR U.S. IN IRAQ?
Well: 82% for ban; Badly: 47% for ban
Early exits were low in all states. It's no conspiracy, it's just homophobia - most Bush supporters cited "moral values" as their biggest issue, and the ballot measures against gay marriage were all the GOTV the GOP needed. Remember all the automated phones calls saying "remember to vote for John Kerry because the Democrat party supports gay marriage". What a shitty country.
Why!!!! I was up until 5 AM watching CNN and woke up at 3PM in hell with the devil as the president!!!AHHH!!!
