    The Unexplained Exit Poll Discrepancy

    Very interesting. See the following link for a link to original paper in pdf format. From BuzzFlash > News Alert >buzzflash: The Unexplained Exit Poll Discrepancy:

    "In 'The Unexplained Exit Poll Discrepancy,' Dr. Steven F. Freeman says:

    'As much as we can say in social science that something is impossible, it is impossible that the discrepancies between predicted and actual vote counts in the three critical battleground states [Ohio, Florida, and Pennsylvania] of the 2004 election could have been due to chance or random error.'

    The odds of those exit poll statistical anomalies occurring by chance are, according to Freeman, '250,000,000 to one.' That's 250 MILLION to ONE.

    He concludes the paper with this:

    'Systematic fraud or mistabulation is a premature conclusion, but the election's unexplained exit poll discrepancies make it an unavoidable hypothesis, one that is the responsibility of the media, academia, polling agencies, and the public to investigate.'"
