Just as Bush got the Florida poll fixed, he is fixing the polls to boost
expectations of his victory and to dispirit us.So take all polls with a grain of salt.Remember most polling organizations are not independent.They need financial backing.Throw in doubtful methodology,underrepresentation of traditional democratic constituencies and you have skewed results. Keep the fiath.The only poll that matters is the one we are going to win on Novemebr 2.

2. San Obisco County in Ca had the election totals for every precinct
in in the middle of the afternoon. The polls didn't close until that night. They didn't even try to hide it at all.
