2. I don't even have to read all that to know the answer is yes. I've seen
all of it before, I'm sure.

Check out this interesting tidbit coming up next Friday:
Be sure to tell CNN to cover it.


Here is a url for the Freeman debate with Mitofsky.

http://releases.usnewswire.com/GetRelease.asp?id=54651

The two will square off in lectures and discussion on Friday, October
14, 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at the University of Pennsylvania Terrace Room,
Logan Hall, 249 South 36th Street in Philadelphia. They will be part of
ASAP's fall meeting, which includes a third talk on the use of two
remarkably powerful statistical methods to make the best use of
clinical
trial data.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 6 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Two experts face-off in lively
lectures and discussion about the utility of exit polls when compared
to
official counts, the potential for election fraud and the role of
statistics in adjudicating critical issues of public importance. The
University of Pennsylvania's departments of Center for Organizational
Dynamics and Political Science and the Philadelphia Chapter of the
American Statistical Association (ASAP) will host the debate.

Like most politically savvy Americans, Steve Freeman Ph.D., was glued
to
the television on election night, 2004. As he poured over exit polling
data on CNN's website, he was fairly confident John Kerry was in the
lead by a projected 5 million votes. But after all the votes were
tallied, especially in the battleground states such as Ohio, the final
tally swung well beyond the exit poll's margin of error to favor the
President.

But unlike most Americans, Freeman holds a Ph.D. in Organizational
Studies, and is a Visiting Scholar at Penn's Center for Organizational
Dynamics where he teaches research methods, including polling. His
natural curiosity and academic diligence led him to research the issue
in as much detail as possible, and the results appear in his
forthcoming
book on the matter titled, Was the 2004 Presidential Election Stolen?
to
be published next month by Seven Stories Press.
lling.
