Just got this from a friend with a DC office:

Our DC office just heard these exit polls. Dem politicos are reporting a low voter turn out in the Bay Area so they are thinking its gonna be a blow out.

Davis' exit polls show:

57% yes on recall
43% no on recall
47% Arnold
34% Bustamonte

Take this for what it's worth, but sounds in line with the polling of late.

San Francisco is a Democrat vote gusher. And if they're staying home in droves there, Arnold should easily pass 50% tonight once L.A reports in. That's before the absentee votes are counted. The fat lady has sung. I believe these exit polls. The numbers sound right.

34% sounds high for Bustamante. Non-whites candidates for California state office tend to get about 5% less at the ballot box than in the final pre-election polls.

The 65% predicted turnout (borne out by turnout so far) is bad news for Davis. That might be the same percentage as vote to recall him.

My personal prediction on the replacement vote is 40-45% for Schwarzenegger, 25% for Bustamante, 20% for McClintock and 10-15% for the other 140+ candidates combined. Unless the hackers really do crack the system and crank up the vote for Gary Coleman.

I mentioned on another thread that I just got a phone call from one of Arnie's top campaign people in Orange County. While she believed the polls earlier this week, she said they were VERY concerned about the unions "bussing people in."

Hmmmmm... I kind of sensed Bustamante's number's were being suppresed with previous polling data.

My north bay polling place was nearly empty. No waiting. This district is about 75% 'Rat.

Yeah, but that's before all those government workers get off.
