GUESS WHO DID THE EXIT POLLS...
Mitofsky International ^

Posted on 11/03/2004 4:11:18 AM PST by paudio

Mitofsky International is a survey research company founded by Warren J. Mitofsky in 1993. Its primary business is conducting exit polls for major elections around the world. It does this work exclusively for news organizations. Mitofsky has directed exit polls and quick counts since 1967 for almost 3,000 electoral contests in United States, Mexico, Russia and the Philippines.

....

From 1967 to 1990, Mitofsky was executive director of the CBS News election and survey unit, and was an executive producer of its election night broadcasts. He conducted the first exit polls for CBS in 1967, and developed the projection and analysis system used successfully by CBS and Voter News Service. He started the CBS News/New York Times Poll in 1975 and directed it for CBS for its first 15 years.

Did you listen to Hewitt last night, especially when John Podhoretz was on? Also Mark Steyn?

The words "possible fraud" and "fraud" were used regarding this exit polling scam and Podhoretz thought it was also aimed at someone wanting to make a killing in the stock market.

I want to know who leaked it all.

Man I knew yesterday afternoon that Rush and Hannity and even my local guys were sounding mighty depressed.

All Hannity could say was Florida panhandle and Ohio.

Now Kerry is gonna wait it out a bit and give himself some juice to look more noble when he concedes...he has no choice.

It's worth the look on Couric and Lauer's mugs this morning...lol

It all leads to Sumner Redstone's operation.

I'll check his book out....would also like to see what Bernard Goldman (I think that's his name) has to say about this connection to CBS. Disgraceful and hopefully illegal and provable in some kind of court....

They feed the bogus exit polls to Drudge yesterday afternoon...to stop our GOTV.

And Drudge took the hook, line and sinker.

After last night they should scrap exit polling altogether.This would force the pundits to actually look at the incoming data.It would delay some state calls because no exit polls to compare with actual returns but accuracy will improve remarkably.

Let's get everything computerized by the next election. That way, the results will come-in much more quickly, exit polling will be irrelevant.

The liberal rats will never admit that Bush won this fair and square.

They will hang this on the exit pollsters for skewing expectations on election day, and causing millions of dems to stay home out of confidence.

I had heard the exit polling was going to be done by the French-owned Associated Press (who we KNOW has been anti-Bush all along)

I was thinking we should organize some Freeper exit polling.

Steve Doosie(sp?) on FOX said it best this morning when he swuggested that using the psychic hotline might be less expensive in the future.

Even more interesting were Brit Hume's comments about the exit polls last night. Apparently, he would rather blame the gross inaccuracy on the fact that Americans are so "evenly divided" than on any malfeasance by the media.

No, they're trying to establish themselves as leaders in the Kool-Aid 'Rat niche. NBC and ABC will be left without a niche!
