Exit polling in Florida on Election Night shows Hispanic and Teen turnout was DOWN (key Obama demographics), while turnout of Seniors over 55 was UP over 2004.

Someone was working HARD to undermine the 2008 election in Florida.

1. Their plot failed because the elderly Jews came out for Obama.

5. Yeah I think the old people vote was a lot closer than their exit polls determined.

6. You'll never convince me
that the big fix was not in long before the election. If you think about the way McSame was SO not worried about any of his or Falin's behavior, especially toward the end... and his attempt to brainwash us all into believing the polls are always wrong.... Rove had the machine in place and McSame knew it...

BUT.... it failed because of the MASSIVE turnout of fed up people... if not for that, McSame would be meeting with shrub on Monday to pick out new drapes... we SWARMED the polls and the fraud failed big time.

7. I'm guessing they didn't include early voters....
2.6 million Floridians voted early. 2.1 voted absentee too.

9. Doubt the exit polls matter much anymore since what they are using on TV
is probably data constantly re-calibrated in real time to fit the machine-counted election results.

10. The 2004 fixed Ohio vote will be more swept under the rug because of 2008
I would not be surprised if voting machines were hacked in 2008, meaning Obama would have won even bigger. But I suspect those hackers involved saw the writing on the wall and backed off deciding not to take the risk when Obama was going to win to many states and the election regardless. Unfortunately people will now say the elections are all good because 2008 seemed to go well. The Ohio 2004 vote was tampered with pure and simple, and they will do it again if we don't fix these problems.

11. Democrats need to address these issues ...

I think the #1 reason that Dems shy away from this issue is they do not want their constituency to believe that voting is futile.

Democrats need to QUIETLY address these issues by illegalizing "electronic only" voting systems in federal elections and laying down some harsh penalties for voter theft, and instituting voting as a RIGHT!!!

They can start in ALASKA where it is VERY obvious that there has been fraud.
