This is an update to the Generic poll model using two projection methods:
1) calculating the 120-poll linear trend and adding an undecided voter
allocation adjustment (UVA) of 60% to the Democratic final trend. 
2) averaging the final 10 Generic polls and adding the UVA adjustment.

The 120-poll trend and 10-poll average projections matched to within .05%.

The reported Democratic vote share was 
1)51.3% based on CBS state totals (11/09).
2)52.7% based on CBS national totals.
3)57.7% based on Wikipedia national totals.
4)52.6% based on the CNN Final National Exit Poll (1108).

Key model results: 
Assuming the Democrats captured 60% of the undecided vote,
1-the 120-Generic poll trend line projected a 56.43% share.
2-the Final 10 Generic poll average projected a 56.38% share

The probability is near ZERO that the vote/poll discrepancies were due to
chance alone.

So either 
1) the 120 pre-election Generic polls and Wikipedia vote count are wrong,
or...
2) the CBS reported vote and CNN exit poll are wrong.

If you believe the Generics and Wikipedia were wrong, take a trip to Sarasota.
It's beautiful this time of year.
Take some time to check out the voting machines in FL-13.
See if you can find those 18,000 (mostly Democratic) missing votes.
________________________________________________

This is a summary of the exit polls and reported votes. 

National Exit Poll 
Source.....Votes  Dem  Rep Other Margin Dem  Rep Other 
CNN-7:07pm 76.58 41.05 34.40 1.13 6.65 53.6% 44.9% 1.5%
CNN-Final  76.58 40.24 34.43 1.91 5.81 52.6% 45.0% 2.5%
NYT (adj)  76.58 40.65 34.40 1.53 6.25 53.1% 44.9% 2.0%
(NYT Exit Poll adjusted to include Other).

Reported National Vote
Wikipedia 68.06 39.27 28.46 0.32 10.80 57.7% 41.8% 0.5%
CBS(Nat)  76.58 40.32 34.57 1.69 5.76 52.7% 45.1% 2.2%
CBS(State)73.69 37.80 34.20 1.69 3.60 51.3% 46.4% 2.3%

CBS State is the sum of reported state votes. The 51.3-46.4% vote share was the
basis for the 5.1% Democratic discrepancy and the calculations which follow. The
3mm vote difference between CBS state and national is virtually all Democratic.

PROJECTED DEMOCRATIC VOTE SHARE BASED ON THE 120-GENERIC POLL TREND LINE

Democratic Projection Frequencies
Proj> Freq	Pct
54.0	120	100.0
54.5	119	99.2
55.0	116	96.7
55.5	105	87.5

57.5	31	25.8
58.0	20	16.7
58.5	5	4.2
59.0	1	0.8

Linear Regression Trend:
Dem = 46.98 + .0419x
GOP = 38.06 + .0047x	

Substituting x=120 and allocating 60% (UVA) to the Democrats: 
........Trend + UVA = Projection
Dem =	52.01 + 4.42 = 56.43%
Rep =	38.62 + 2.95 = 41.57%

Assuming a 1.5% MoE and 60% UVA, we calculate the probability that the
Democratic vote share would decline 5.13% from the Generic Poll (56.43%) to
the actual vote (51.3%). 

Using the Excel Normal Distribution function: 
Probability= 1.0E-11= NORMDIST(0.513,0.5643,0.015/1.96,TRUE)
or 1 in 99,128,359,468

These FACTS are never discussed in the media.
- election fraud
- undecided voters break for the challenger, especially if the incumbent is unpopular. Bush was at 48%.
- Many newly registered voters are not included in LV (likely voter) polls.
- Since 1988, Democrats have won 60-70% of new voters. In 2008, Obama had 71%+.
- MILLIONS of mostly (70-80%) Democratic votes are uncounted in every election
- The 2004/2006/2008 Final National Exit Polls indicated there were millions of returning phantom Bush voters from the prior election (more than were alive).
- The Final National and State exit polls are always FORCED TO MATCH the recorded vote.
- By definition, the RECORDED VOTE never reflects the TRUE VOTE since millions of votes are UNCOUNTED in EVERY election.
- Uncounted votes alone provide overwhelming evidence that elections were stolen in 1968, 1988, 2000 and 2004.
- 1968: 6 million net uncounted votes.
Nixon won the recorded vote by 500,000.
- 1988: 10.6 million net uncounted votes. Bush won the recorded vote by 7m.
- 2000: 5.4 million net uncounted votes. Gore won the recorded vote by 540,000.
- 2004: Nearly 4 million uncounted votes.
Bush won the recorded vote by 3.0 million.
Kerry won the True Vote by 10m.
Approximately 5 million were switched from Kerry to Bush on UNVERIFIABLE voting machines.

- 2006 midterms: Democrats won by more than double the recorded 52-46%% margin.
10-20 House seats were stolen.

- 2008: Obama won by more than double his recorded 9.5m margin.

1988-2008: the average Democratic TRUE VOTE margin was reduced from 10% to a 4% RECORDED MARGIN by Election Fraud.

VOTER FRAUD was virtually non-existent.

and TIA has sliced it every way possible. Now why would the Dems not want to
address this and past frauds?
