Zogby! Please help! (re: Olbermann's report)

How about a post-election "exit poll" in some of those 29 Florida counties mentioned in Keith's report (hugely democratic counties that voted overwhelmingly for Bush)?

1. Was Zogby involved in exit polling?

I thought all the networks and AP agreed on one source for exit polling. Was Zogby running it or part of it? I never heard that.

I just mean that Zobgy (or any reputable polster) should do a legitimate poll NOW in several of those 29 counties with dubious results--ask people who they voted for. Since it looks like the results were flipped (Kerry votes to Bush and vice-versa), and since the margins were huge, the truth would become readily apparent. Or, if it was legit, that would also become apparent.

6. email-half about who I voted for... other half about religion and morals

I just tried to go back so I could copy paste the questions, but it would not let me in. It also included a fair anout of off the wall questions... can't remember thought as I was a little tipsy.

9. Thanks for the info.

I'm glad to hear he's doing post-"election" polling. I assume he's doing the same thing in FL. It would be nice if his results matched the exit polls.

10. I went to the Zogby site looking for an explanation on all I found was a

sales pitch for the final results analyzed. Like I would ever be in the serious market for any of his work if he doesn't at least come up with a good explanation why his forecasts were so far off the mark.

by the way I don't know what Keith's report talked about but the 29 Florida counties that went for Bush have already pretty much been explained. I hope there's other stuff than that on the horizon because there is simply nothing there on that.
