Re: Are the Forces of Darkness on the March?

Any attempt to understand this election in terms of exit polls,

I was not aware that the exit polls had been shown to be wrong. What
I think we know (and I'm not even sure of this) is that the published
exit polls were in very significant disagreement with the published
election results.

I read an interesting article by Fox News analyst, Dick Morris, who
explains why it is extremely unlikely that the exit polls were simply
"wrong."

His conclusion:

This was no mere mistake. Exit polls cannot be as wrong across the
board as they were on election night. I suspect foul play.
