Reply #8: Why is systematic fraud or error so unlikely? [View All]

[McCamy Taylor]

In the wake of Selection 2000, it was revealed that Gore won Florida 2000 because Republican controlled counties in Florida had initially, dare I say systematically, under reported Democratic votes.

It gets worse. The same pattern of SYSTEMATIC under reporting of Democratic votes in Republican counties was noted all across the south on recounts. Plus, poor, Democratic counties are more likely to have technology such as punchcards that have a higher percentage of undercounts of votes.

So, of course exit polls will always show higher Democratic votes than the election night tallies, since exit polls ask people how they intended to vote, not how GOP precinct workers intend to count or fail to count their votes or how machines will fail to read a card with a hanging chad.

Anyone who engages in the activity of exit poll bashing right now is a Freeper until proven otherwise.
