Tell A Friend

In the first poll of its kind, OpEdNews.com, in the second
OpEdNews/Zogby People's poll has learned that except for viewers
of right wing news show, Fox News, poll respondents believe that
the 2004 presidential election was stolen.

Overall, the poll found that 39% said that the 2004 election was
stolen. 54% said it was legitimate.


Here are the stats by network listed as first choice by
respondent and whether the respondent thought the election was
stolen or legitimate:

Network Stolen Legitimate
ABC        56%      32%
CBS        64%      31%
CNN        70%      24%
FOX        .5%      99%
MSNBC    65%      24%
NBC        49%      43%
Other      56%      28%

Nice to know, except for FAUX News viewers, most of the country recognizes the 2004 election was stolen! Seems our message is permeating in spite of the MSM's GREAT WALL OF SILENCE!

WARNING! There are cranks and kooks and crazies out there on the Internet who say that George Bush lost the 2004 election, like one titled, "Kerry Won" published on the TomPaine.com web site two days after the election. I wrote it.

On November 11, a week after TomPaine.com published it, I received an e-mail from The New York Times Washington Bureau. Hot on the investigation of the veracity of the vote, The Times reporter asked me pointed questions:

Question #1: Are you a "sore loser"?

Question #2: Are you a "conspiracy nut"?

There was no third question. Investigation of the vote was, for The Times at any rate, complete. The next day, the paper's thorough analysis of the evidence yielded this front-page story, "VOTE FRAUD THEORIES, SPREAD BY BLOGS, ARE QUICKLY BURIED."

13. Those really are Saddam-ish numbers!
Fox is some freaking powerful Kool-Aid! Do you suppose they have some kind of brainwave-flattening signal they pump through the video?

17. That .5%...
Is us. :) Think about it. If you believe it was stolen, but still watch Fox, it's for "monitoring purposes only".

Yay! This is the most enocouraging news I've heard in weeks. You can fool some of the people some of the time (and, yes, FOX News viewers, I AM talking to you), but at least the majority of America has it's head screwed on straight.

15. yeah, there is a credibility problem here
I can't tell from the methodology statement whether the sample is random. It looks like an opt-in panel -- which is probably a step up from a one-shot on-line poll in that people presumably won't get solicited to respond to individual questions, but is a long way from a random sample. If that is right, then the margin of error is basically meaningless (not the first time I've seen that around here).

Also, I can't find the question wording. No way to interpret a survey response without knowing what people were responding to.

16. No matter how hard MSM has tried to conceal information about * and
the election, people still disapprove of * and believe the election was stolen.
