Republicans created a website to make up their own poll numbers

[mim89]

Polling conspiracists have their own website, UnSkewedPolls.com, which essentially takes existing polls and changes the numbers so that Mitt Romney is winning them.

Well, there’s more to it than that—not a lot more, but more. The idea behind UnSkewedPolls.com is that there should be a far greater ratio of Republicans to Democrats in the electorate today than voters are telling pollsters that there is. The site takes data from major public polls, opens them up, and recalculates the percentages based on these much-more-GOP-friendly assumptions. In the RealClearPolitics average of national polls this morning, as I write this, Barack Obama leads by 3.7%. In the world of UnSkewedPolls.com, Romney is currently up by 7.8%. Click, tap–hello, landslide!

1. So is that the one they're gonna use to justify election theft, or is that what they're

feeding Romney to keep him going with the lies like the energizer bunny?

2. They will need something to explain the stolen election.

3. "UnSkewedPolls"... hilariously ironic.

It's pretty much the same as "Fox News: Fair and Balanced".

4. A look into how they "unskewed" one poll.... LOL!

"While the NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll did not disclose the cross-tabs for presidential preference among Republicans, Democrats and independents, that information was calculated by extrapolation. That estimate shows Republicans and Democrats each supported their own nominee by a margin of approximately 95 percent to 5 percent while independent voters narrowly supporter Romney 48 percent to 41 percent for Obama.

When the data from the NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll is unskewed by weighting their reported percentages between Romney and Obama to the partisan affiliations showed by Rasmussen's extensive data results on that issue, the overall picture of Obama's approval to disapproval rating is different. With Republicans weighted 37.6 percent, Democrats at 33.3 percent and Independents at 29.2 percent, the results calculate to 44 percent approval to 54 percent disapproval. Likewise, instead of the reported 50 percent to 45 percent lead for Obama, the data actually indicates a Romney lead of 51 percent to 44 percent."

6. Not so sure they'll be able to pull it off.

There are a LOT of people who have taken to the streets against election fraudsters and Obama has so much support from us, the base, that it's going to be extremely hard to pull off a national election theft without blowing the game.....I'm increasingly convinced that they may instead try to jack some of the House & Senate races instead.

7. I hope you're right.

We have voter suppression, vote purging, voter ID and electronic machines. Now they've added a poll to back them up. I'm getting very nervous!
