If you think the vote that comes down in November will automatically reflect the exit polls or the pre-election polling, you re greatly mistaken.

I have no idea who the tilt will favor this time. Trump may not have enough clout with the voting machines moguls and the people who are rigging the elections, people like Rove, but if they decide that they want Trump to win, you can bet your bottom dollar that Trump will win, at least in the key states that swing the election.

Kerry was defeated in 04 because of a computer based "man-in-the-middle" scheme cooked up by Rove, and Clinton would be easy meat for some new Rove in the '16 election. As Steven Freeman said, speaking about the machines and the 04 election, these machines are "trivially easy" to rig or hack or maliciously program.

A good recent book about the "red tilt" that has given us the present Republican-controlled Congress is CODE RED by Jon Simon. It answers all the important questions about the issue, and one of the last chapters about the 2010 MA senatorial race is a "must read" for anybody interested in these issues.
