State Exit Poll/Vote Statistical Update
Advertisements [?]
Edited on Sun Jan-23-05 04:00 AM by TruthIsAll
 
This is an update/correction of the 2-party exit poll/vote
analysis.

Note the correction:
Fifteen (15) states deviated to Bush beyond the MOE.
I originally calculated 16 (using Nov. 3 data), then using
current vote data, I calculated it incorrectly last week as
20. 

Total	2-party votes: 121,056
(in thousands of votes)

42 of 50 states deviated to Bush
The probability is 0.0000005818
The odds are 1 in 1.719 million

15 states deviated beyond the MOE to Bush
The probability is 0.0000000000009166
The odds are 1 in 1.091 trillion

4 States flipped from Kerry to Bush (FL, OH, IA, NM)	

Kerry (2-party): 
Actual Vote: 59,085 (48.81%) 
Exit Poll:   60,997 (50.39%)	
Deviation:  1.912 million votes


Bush (2-party): 
Actual Vote: 61,971 (51.19%) 
Exit Poll: 60,059 (49.61%) 

Average MOE: 2.85%	
Average Net Deviation from Kerry to Bush: 1.73%
