This is a new thread- if trends continue to go our way, I look forward to checking in to the delusional ranting:


whats the news on early polling?


Posted on 11/01/2004 5:27:58 AM PST by BuckeyeGOP

first I hear W is winning in early fla polling, now I here it's flipped drastically to Kerry. I've heard the same stuff in IA. Where's our bloggers with the scoop?

If I may give some advice, don't worry about early voting...either way. Just do everything you can to get out the vote. Don't get complacent if Bush is up, don't get down if Bush is down. It does not matter who is leading in the beginning of the race, what matters is who ends with the most votes.

Don't worry. they're going off of a subgroup of an already small sample. This is utter bull$h!t. 30% of maybe 500 to 800 people at best. These are polls of somewhere around 200 people. So they are getting maybe 15 more Kerry voters than Bush voters. This is what we call the science of small numbers, or in logic terms, a fallacy of hasty generalizations.

Also keep in mind that conservative voters are much more likely to vote on Election Day, like normal people. It's mostly going to be the energized Bush haters who are out voting early (and hopefully not often.)

I voted for President Bush in Duval County last week & no one polled me. So that is at least one vote he received.

1. GOP "truth"--"normal" people vote ON Election Day?

Well, if "normal" means = "Republican", I'd toss my lot in with the non-normal people!

7. That jumped out at me also.

I have always been under the impression that the pukes did better than Dems with early voting/absentee balloting. Not this time.

[fugop]

17. That's what I heard too

That early voting usually goes more Republican - maybe because more of the early voting states are red?

10. Guess I'm not "normal".

Thank Gawd!

[amber dog democrat]

12. Neither am I

I am grateful freepers are this stupid.

2. Talk about delusional!

Only 500-800 early voters? HA! Guess I'm not 'normal' either, as you can see by the avatar.

3. WTF!!

Also keep in mind that conservative voters are much more likely to vote on Election Day, like normal people. It's mostly going to be the energized Bush haters who are out voting early (and hopefully not often.)


LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE??!! This is so pathetic! Well,If voting early is an indication of Abnormalacy,then I,m a proud member of the club.

Fuck Em!! BUSH IS TOTALLY FRIED!!

4. Fried Monkey is a delicacy in many Aisian countries

[Ms.Victory]

6. Ewwwwwww!!!

LOL!! You just reminded me of that Indiana Jones movie,where they were served fried monkey brains or something similar. Yuck! :)

[npincus]

15. yes, eating the brains of a live monkey is a delicacy in Thailand

however, if they cracked open Bush's skull it would hardly be an appetizer's-worth, so you've GOT to fry him

[WoodrowFan]

5. 500-800??

they think only 5-800 poeple voted early????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? :wtf:

[Kierkegaard]

9. Actually, they don't think at all.

What're you talkin about?

[Cats Against Frist]

8. Fuck them

I'm voting on Election day, and so is my boyfriend, my mother, my dad, my brother and most of my friends. And we're all voting for Kerry.

11. Love this line!

"It's mostly going to be the energized Bush haters who are out voting early"

Because we know those Bush-lovers just aren't that energized.

[MileHiStealth]

13. Like I don't have enough problems ... now I'm un-normal !!!!

I'm going back to bed ... nah, screw that...
I'm going to vote ...

[Patiod]

14. "no one polled me"

Shows a typical (or a lot of people, not just Freepers) misunderstanding of the concept of sampling

[Insomnicole]

16. But ... but ... but ...

Didn't George H.W. and Babs vote early in Texas?

Guess they're abnormal people too.
