56. TIA was supported by the Economist
which showed Kerry consistently ahead from early October.

I submit that exit polling alone in the ABSENCE of any supporting evidence would not automatically constitute fraud. But TIA point is impossible to argue: given that the polling was overwhelming skewed in one direction; that the poll adjustments made on television were impossible given the small increase in sample; that the exit polls cohered with the actual result in most non-swing states and senate races; that voters REPORT trying to vote for Kerry and seeing their votes transferred to Bush; that so called "glitches" ALWAYS occur in Bush's favor and in rational numbers; that machines routinely broke down and were attended by poll workers and technicians; that the machines themselves are made and owned by Bush supporters; that the Governor of Florida is Bush's brother and the SOS of OHIO his chief campaigner; that there was rampant voter suppression in Democratic swing state counties; that the lines were longest in Democratic precincts suggesting a late swing for Kerry and finally the unprecedented GOTV campaign by grassroots Democrats. Unless circumstantial evidence is no longer a valid legal argument- AS far as this argument goes: TIA wins in a landslide.
