THE FRONTLINE: Montana, Missouri, Tenn., Virginia...... Exit Polls Contradicted In Count...

[althecat]

SENATE FRONTLINE

First cut Exit Polls showed the first two decisively democrat. Virginia was close. Exit poll had Ford narrowly behind in Tenn.

Three of these races are currently counting in favour of the republicans.

We have no numbers for Montana.

I would be very interested if someone could make a comparison between the initial exit polls in the other races and the counts reporting so far.

1. Alright, the pukes have shown their hand...

...MO, Tenn and VA are the battlegrounds for our challenges. 

[althecat]

2. Also.. note... all these races the margin is rediculously thin....

... in terms of actual votes
24,000 odd in VA. With 2 million counted.
33,000 in Missouri. With 16% just reporting...
66,000 in Tennessee. With 1.3 million counted.

We do not want any concessions in these races.

And for that matter why did Ned Lamont just concede with only 20% reporting..... rage, rage, against the dying of the light.

8. You should wait until the final count to be comparing the exit polls

It appears, if the polls are accurate, that odds are against Ford and for McCaskill, Tester, and Stem Cell initiative. Webb v. Allen will likely go to a recount given how close returns have been and the fact that exit polling is statistically a dead heat; regardless of who wins initual count.

9. Anyone From Tennesee know about these counties...

Hawkins 0%
Humphreys 11%
Lake 0%
Madison 67% (big 50/50)
Montgomery 0%
Morgan 8%
Shelby 86% (Very big Democratic)
Tipton 61%
Warren 5% (Democratic from the look of things)
Weakley 10% (Big republican from the look of things)
Williamson 77% (Big republican)
Wilson 81% (Big republican)

Those are the outstanding TN votes...

10. Illegal software found in Shelby!

Documented Election Law and Security Violations in Shelby County
October 19, 2006

Shelby County’s conduct of the August primary election may have violated basic election system security procedures. Documents released earlier this month reveal multiple breaches of security and cast doubt on the legality of the election process.

As part of a lawsuit alleging illegal voting brought by four unsuccessful candidates for clerk positions, election officials’declarations and discovery documents call into question the election results. Although their case was dismissed October 5, Shep Wilbun, Sondra Becton, Vernon Johnson and Otis Jackson have performed a valuable service. See more: http://home.comcast.net/~racornell/pr101906.html

11. Talent concedes!!! McCaskill wins!!!

Three brave souls fought off the sheriff and Rich Chrismer and stuck it out at the 170th precinct in St. Charles County!!

St. Charles went to Talent by 52 to 44% (probably 51% to 48% when we see the films and recount.

Give a big HOORAY!!! to those folks from ShowMeTheVote!!!!
