    The national polls indicate a close race. The National 5-poll projection model is a virtual tie. But Obama leads the State Monte Carlo simulation model by 51.348.7% with 293 expected electoral votes.

    There has been much discussion regarding the recent McCain “surge” in the national polls. State polls are necessary for projecting the electoral vote. But state polls lag the nationals by 2–3 weeks. View the relationship in the State vs. National vote projection trend graph. There is a direct correlation between the national popular vote and the electoral vote. If Obama gets 51% of the 2-party national vote, his Monte Carlo electoral vote win probability is 90% (see the table below).

    Most of the national and state polls are sponsored by the corporate MSM. But that’s nothing new: Democratic poll numbers always exceed the recorded vote but are less than the True Vote. USAToday/Gallup and other national polls increased the Republican Party ID percentage weighting, which boosted McCain’s poll numbers.

    Recall that the 2004 and 2006 Final National Exit Polls weightings were adjusted to match the recorded vote miscount. But all category cross-tabs had to be changed, not just Party ID. Of course, the Final Exit Poll (state and national) is always matched to the Recorded vote, even though it may be fraudulent — as it was in 2000, 2004 and 2006. This cannot be emphasized enough. Say it loud, again and again.


    In 2004, the 12:22am National Exit Poll (NEP) had a 3835 Democrat/Republican 'Party ID' mix.

    Kerry won  the 12:22am Preliminary NEP by 5148%.    ( 13,047 random sample, 1% MoE )

    The mix was changed to 3737 in the Final NEP  to 'force' a match to the Recorded vote;

    Bush won  the 1:25pm 'forced' Final NEP by 5148%.

    Likewise, the Gore/Bush 'Voted 2000' weights were changed from 3941 to 3743 in the Final    ('13047' & '13660' here).

    The election was stolen.  Bush was the official winner by 50.7–48.3% with 286 EV.  The Final Exit Polls were "adjusted" accordingly.

    The Great Election Fraud Lockdown: Uncounted, Stuffed and Switched Votes

    Professional associations such as AAPOR, media pundits and election forecasters never discuss Election Fraud. On the contrary, a complicit media has been in a permanent election fraud lockdown, while it relentlessly promotes the fictional propaganda that Bush won BOTH elections. They want you to believe that Democrats always do better in the exit polls, because Republican voters are reluctant responders. But they never consider other, more plausible explanations — such as uncounted votes and stuffed ballots. Read more here.

    Apparently, the MSM and election fraud naysayers are unaware that millions of ballots are either uncounted or stuffed. And that these anomalies have always favored a Bush: in 1988, 1992, 2000 and 2004. That is one reason why the Democratic True vote (and exit poll share) is always greater than the Recorded vote.

    The MSM does not want you to know the facts and assumes that you won’t try to reconcile the preliminary exit polls, census and recorded vote totals. If you try, expect to be labeled as a conspiracy nut.

    These are the facts:
