Election Day
I’ma join the team o’lawyers to help Palin and McCain steal the vote in the Tar Heel state, so I’ll be out of pocket for most of the day. All y’all might could weigh in in my absence, though.
And for those who haven’t voted yet, or are likely to talk to people who haven’t, now is a good time to remind you not to trust the exit polls. They’re only marginally more scientific than online polls, and for the same reason: they do a great job of measuring a meaningless sample. The McCampaign concurs, noting a meta-poll in which 46% of Obama supporters indicated that they were likely to participate in exit polls while only 35% of McCain supporters were. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Obama will probably win the election, but he’ll almost certainly win the exit poll by a landslide.
