POSSIBLE CA EXIT POLLS--LEAKED DATA
Calblog ^ | October 7, 2003 | Armed Prophet

Posted on 10/07/2003 2:47:41 PM PDT by publius1

Apparently Leaked Exit Polling Says... Armed Prophet here, with what I believe is a major scoop, though it may not be entirely surprising.

That is, I'm hearing that early exit polling -- which includes absentees -- already shows the recall and Arnold both with "double digit" leads. (I'm a bit surprised to hear that those numbers are already being tabulated, but this is what I'm told.) Speculation is the race may be called within a few hours of the polls closing.

I obviously can't vouch for it myself -- I'm in DC -- but the source I'm hearing this from is very well-connected in state and national politics; if anybody would know this kind of thing out here, it's this person. So take this information with a bit of caution. But if I'm right, you heard it here first.

(Cross-posted -- sort of -- on Armed Prophet.)

Sounds like a RAT covert plan to get the networks to call the election for Arnold and the recall a win to discourage voters who haven't yet voted for either.

Won't happen. People not in California can't understand what it feels like to vote for this election and the excitement at the prospect of taking back the government. Your analogy with Florida doesn't compute. If people were getting feedback that a vote for recall was hopeless, that might be the case. But all indications are that Gray is toast. And people want to be a part of of that.

Republicans will want to join the bandwagon and make sure Davis is ousted -- they will vote!
Oh, I certainly hope so. I just can never put anything past a rat.

"I'd rather keep Davis, drop 5 and punt (wait for 96)."

Doh! Make that '06

I live in Central Contra Costa County in the NoCal Bay Area. Last November, there were, maybe, two voters in the room along with me to vote. After work, same time as today.

I drove up at 6 pm, saw a line. As I approached the door, I looked back and the line had quadrupled. It looked like the return line at Target on Saturday afternoon. Everyone seemed very anticipatory and there was a definite positive buzz, along the lines of, this is worth it, it's important.

I was in line for 20 minutes, and it was worth it.

I think it is best for us to not post exit polling data that we cannot confirm as breaking news. Anyone could make anything up at this point. Just ask Coop.

OK, I'm asking you, Coop... what is our dear AM referring to?

Like Bob Novak, I'm not at liberty to reveal my sources.
