“Jack:

Did you see a D+6 turnout a week before the election? Did you see it sooner than that?”

Here’s a good summary of the second in the 2010 census series. If you wanna have your mind blown, compare the demographics in this link with the exit polls from election day:

So after reading that, can you see how you could have made a good guess about this election in March of 2011 and be not too far off?

Obviously rally size is a poor indicator of results in the actual vote. The media also shapes leftist rallies to be far more significant than they are and downplay or ignore rallies of the right.

***2010? If your results go that far back, you could have made a killing on intrade.

I was suggesting the polls were skewed way before it was cool.
