Larry Sabato says "people are not that organized" to skew polls..
I say "Hah"..
This has the grimy fingerprints of Karl Rove all over it.
I have read recently that he and some of his henchmen have "started" polling companies.
He has enough clout to muddy the waters....and to get his polls included in with the others, when media reports & averages the polls
Rove is an evil-genius when it comes to stuff like this.
We USED to be able to know what the exit polls were, so we could convince ourselves that the count was relatively accurate, and Rove, Co (and his complicit media pals) managed to get that stopped
Recounts are little more than re-adding "quirky" counts
Polls that swing wildly and are questionable at best, are just the latest wrinkle to get people to have no way to evaluate anything.
Our "elections" are unspeakably strange, and have been for a long time.
For all the money and effort that gets poured into them , you'd think that some attention to correcting the methodology . Without a "blow-out", are we ever realy sure that the real winner gets to serve?
