What do the people making allegations of fraud, Diebold etc. think about the fact that the exit polls were correct?

1. They'll tell you the totals were adjusted and that Edison/Mitofsky is in cahoots with Diebold

2. trust but verify.... and because of reports like this....
seems like areas that were counted by diebold machines went for clinton and Mccain in higher percentages then areas taht were hand counted.

UPDATE JAN 9 9am PST: TOWN OF SUTTON CONFIRMS RON PAUL TOTALS WERE 31, NOT ZERO.

I just got off the phone with Jennifer Call, Town Clerk for Sutton. She confirmed that the Ron Paul totals in Sutton were actually 31, and said that they were "left off the tally sheet" and it was human error.

This is not an acceptable answer, especially because one of the most common forms of fraud in a hand count system is to alter or omit results on the reporting sheet. Hand count is lovely, transparent. They then fill out another reconciliation sheet, often in front of witnesses, and it looks fine. Then they provide a summary or media sheet with the incorrect results.

4. conspiricists fail to realize that most of their theories would require the ,,,
participation of, and absolute silence of, half the population, in order for the plan to work. But then most conspiricists are also paranoid and that pretty much explains most of their logical fallacies.

5. They only weaken the facts about Ohio 2004
with these ridiculous comments.
I am no Hillary fan but truth still matters to me.

6. Some are probably the same who praised exit polls for years.
But that was then...
