He worked it out with a pencil.

I just went to the thread ....so we're supposed to believe that a DUmmie with less than 30 posts 'somehow' found an old DUer's web site and mysteriously they are both interested in vote counting.  To top all that off the banned TruthIsAll has a follower with the user name of questionseverything ....

A reminder -- there was a time when TIA disregarded the very pollsters he is using now, as he takes his base data from RCP.

20. so show us the math that refutes this

View profile
3) In the 1988-2008 presidential elections, 226 of 274 exit polls red-shifted to the Republicans. Only about 137 would normally be expected to red-shift. The probability is zero.
4) 126 of the 274 exit polls exceeded the margin of error. Only 14 (5%) would normally be expected. The probability is ZERO.
5) 123 of the 126 exit polls that exceeded the margin of error red-shifted to the Republicans. The probability is ZERO.

My guess: questionseverything =TIA V2 :rofl:
