Apparently it was just "test data" on the site. But that still begs a few questions --

With Brown ahead in virtually all polls, why did the "test data" show Coakley winning? Is that wishful thinking on the Globe's part?

Why doesn't the site have a disclaimer that says "TEST DATA" if the site contains "test data"?

Couldn't they use "test data" like 25 votes for Brown and 25 votes for Coakley, with 100% of precincts reporting? Why isn't that a good test?

All of this feeds into the well known fear that US elections are tainted and that the results are determined by the counters and not the voters. The Leftist media shows its arrogance by not being sensitive to this fear.

Of course. They have to fill in their 'data' columns with something to test their formulas, so why not with what they'd like to see...?
