General Discussion

In 2004 the exit polls showed ES&S machines had a bias against Kerry that was greater than the expected margin of error in 16 states. Other companies' machine counts were on the money compared to the exit polls. According to the exit polls, Kerry won 15 of those states. There were numerous threads here with excellent write ups. So what happened? The exit polls are now "adjusted" to match the official results.

Who needs conspiracy "theories"?

Frankly, I don't see that the voter suppression practiced by Republicans is always enough. Last time they purged millions of Black and inner city voters, took away drop boxes from Democratic districts, had fewer machines in Democratic precincts, and still had to resort to bomb threats to keep Democratic numbers down. I still think that adjusting machine totals is not a bridge too far for Republicans. But I can be persuaded, by hand counted paper ballot recounts.
