According to Electoral-vote.com, the decline in Obama’s state polls has resulted in a 269–256 EV spread. RealClearPolitics.com shows the national polls tightening. The Zogby poll has McCain leading by 5 points. By just presenting polling data without making adjustments for the large number of undecided and newly registered voters, these and other election forecasting sites confirm the media spin that the race is close. The Election Model calculates that Obama has a bigger lead than these sites indicate. The Monte Carlo electoral vote simulation has him leading by 335–203. He leads in the aggregate State projection model by 52.3–47.7% and in the National model by 52.4–47.6%. The calculations assume the election is held today. Here’s why Obama is doing better:
But there’s another, bigger problem for Obama: Election Fraud. The media pundits want to keep it close by avoiding McCain’s gaffes, flip-flops and plagiarisms. Never mind that he supports the most unpopular president in history. In a true democracy, this would be a slam dunk for Obama. NOT ONE ELECTION WEBSITE, POLLSTER OR MEDIA PUNDIT EVER MENTIONS THE FRAUD FACTOR. The Election Model accounts for the distinct probability that the election will be fraudulent and adjusts the vote shares accordingly. This analysis will be provided right up to the election. To show the effects of fraud, the summary table displays Obama’s electoral and popular vote assuming 3% of total votes cast are uncounted (Obama has 75%) and 4% of Obama’s votes are switched to McCain. After adjusting for these factors, Obama has 250 electoral votes and a 49.5% vote share. Of course, for higher switched vote and uncounted vote rates, he would lose by larger margins. Two graphs display the effects of a combination range of uncounted and switch vote scenarios on the EV and popular vote (see the links below). The Democratic True Vote is always greater than the Recorded Vote. According to the Census Bureau, 5.4m (4.9%) of total votes cast in 2000 were uncounted. Approximately 4.0m were Gore votes. In 2004, 3.4m (2.7%) votes were uncounted (2.5m were Kerry votes). The Election Calculator model (see below) indicates that 5.3m (7.9%) Kerry votes (1 in 13) were switched to Bush. OBAMA NEEDS A MASSIVE VOTER REGISTRATION AND GOTV EFFORT TO OVERCOME THE FRAUD. In the Three-Card Monte con, the mark is tricked into betting that he can find the money card among three face-down cards. A rigged election is the Vote Scam equivalent of the Three-card Monte. What you see in the exit polls is not what you get in the recorded count; the recorded vote is never equal to the True vote. In this con game, the voter is the mark. Any model which correctly calculates the True vote is doomed to fail in a rigged election. New features have been added to the State model. Obama’s projected 2-party vote share is compared to the final Kerry projection, unadjusted exit poll and recorded vote shares. His 52.28% projected share is 0.48% higher and within 0.19% of Kerry’s unadjusted exit poll share. The Edison-Mitofsky WPE Input Management Screen (IMS) measure had Kerry at 51.92% (equivalent to a 2-party share of 52.48%). Zogby and Harris were correct when they projected a Kerry win. But Bush won a rigged Recorded vote, while Kerry won the True vote. As in Three-Card Monte, what you see is not what you get. Election forecasters and media pundits who projected a Bush win avoid mentioning the overwhelming evidence that the election was stolen. On the contrary, a complicit media has been in a permanent election fraud lockdown, while it relentlessly promotes the fictional propaganda that Bush won BOTH elections. Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes conventional wisdom. Although the media commissioned exit polls which indicated that Kerry won by 5%, they never explained why mathematically impossible weights were used in the Final Exit Poll to force a match to the recorded vote count. Bush won the corrupt Recorded vote but lost the True vote. The final 2004 Election Model projection gave Kerry 337 EV and 51.8% of the two party vote. Bush won the recorded vote by 62–59m with 286 EV. These graphs display the effects of uncounted and switched votes on Obama's projected EV and 2-party vote share. ?click">Effect of uncounted and switched votes on the projected vote share ?click">Effect of uncounted and switched votes on the electoral vote
National Model — see atop State Model
Note: In the above table, the Obama Exp EV is based on his expected (average) electoral vote from 5000 simulated election trials. The electoral votes shown in the column are for states Obama is projected to win; the total will usually differ from the expected EV. That’s because the Monte Carlo simulation uses state win probabilities in order to calculate the expected (average) electoral vote — the preferred method. Uncounted and Switched Vote Fraud Scenarios The Election Model has been updated to include two key fraud variable factors: uncounted votes (net of votes padded) and switched votes. Historical evidence shows that over 75% of uncounted ballots are found in heavily Democratic minority precincts. These critical factors are never included in election forecasting models which permeate the media and the internet. In fact, there is no mention of fraud from professional pollsters, political forecasters in academia, media pundits or liberal bloggers on their web sites. But it’s understandable. No one wants to bite the hand that feeds them. Why should any of these interested parties discuss fraud when Democratic politicians won’t? Unlike impeachment, the dirty little secret of election fraud has always been off the table in Congress. Read more about uncounted votes here. The Election Calculator Model This model uses prior election votes cast, mortality and estimated voter turnout to calculate the True Vote. It was originally developed to determine the 2004 True vote after the fact. It does not calculate the corresponding Electoral vote. But we can estimate the Electoral vote and win probability from the popular vote. National Exit Poll vote shares of returning voters were key inputs. As of today, the 2008 Election Calculator confirms the Election Model: Obama has 54.1% and will win the True Vote by 71 – 59m. Input consists of 2004 total votes cast (recorded plus uncounted), mortality and 2004 voter turnout in 2008. The vote shares are similar to the 2004 National Exit Poll shares of returning and new voters. 2008 True Vote Election Calculator Forecast Popular and Electoral Vote Win Probabilities These are a few reasons why Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is preferable to election forecasting methods used in the media and academia:
In each of the 5000 Monte Carlo election trials, the winner of each state is determined using win probabilities calculated from the latest poll-based projection. The winner of the election trial is the candidate who has at least 270 EV. The electoral vote win probability is simply the number of winning election trials divided by 5000. State and national aggregate popular vote win probabilities are calculated using the Excel normal distribution function. The projected two-party vote share and standard deviation (MoE/1.96) are inputs to the function. A constant 4% MoE is assumed for all state poll win probabilities. The National Model calculates a 5-poll moving average projection assuming the base case Obama 60% UVA scenario. The National projection would normally be a leading indicator of the State model aggregate since it is based on up-to-date polling. The normal distribution function calculates the national popular vote win probability assuming the MoE of the latest poll.

He won the official vote by 62 – 59m (122.3m recorded). But according to the 2004 Census, 125.7m votes were cast. Therefore, approximately 3.4m votes (2.74%) were uncounted. The majority (70–80%) of uncounted ballots are in Democratic minority precincts. Including uncounted votes, the adjusted count becomes 62.9–61.5m.
The Election Model produced a startling confirmation of the state and national models.
The final 5 national poll average projection was 51.8%. The final 18 national poll average projection was 51.6%. Kerry’s projected vote share was within 2.0% of his exit poll share in 23 states.
Exit Pollsters Edison-Mitofsky released their 2004 Evaluation report in Jan. 2005.
The state exit poll WPD:
The 1:25pm FINAL National Exit Poll indicated that Kerry lost by 48 – 51%.
2004 Registered Voter (RV) vs. Likely Voter (LV) Polls
The Election Calculator Model determined that Kerry won by 66.9 – 57.7 million. Simple arithmetic shows that approximately 5.4m votes (8.0%) were switched from Kerry to Bush. In most states, votes cast exceeded votes recorded — the net uncounted vote. In Florida, Ohio and other states, votes recorded exceeded votes cast — the net padded vote.
