2. Yes it is Edison
Mr. Mitofsky is dead so they will no longer use his name in the sourcing but it is the same setup.

There is no right wing bias in the exit polling. It is what it is. The media can spin however they want and since we all know who owns the media then we know how it will be spun.

3. Didn't they get it right in 2004, only to adjust the results to match the outcome?
Or am I wrong?

4. Yes, in the afternoon they changed their numbers to match the machine count.
That is why Kerry was winning in the morning and Bush in the afternoon.
