There are sociological studies that show that people will lie when put on the spot about a choice that is seen as socially rejected. Where I work, the anti-Bush sentiment is so strong that anyone short of me would lie about who they voted for due to social/peer pressure. I'm not saying that the there was not foul play, I'm saying that for every study used to say that exit polls are correct, there are others that show that they have the chance of not being (a greater chance then mentioned below that is). Should there be checks on all states where the exit polls differed greatly from the actual numbers? I don't see why not. On the other hand, don't be surprised if the numbers come out as correct, especially in middle America. > > Robert wrote: > > There is no legitimate data suggesting anything other than a lot of > wishful thinking > > There is a scientific study from the University of Pennsylvania that says: > > 1.)
