Reply #43: Mitofsky still has some explaining to do.

I would like those early exit polls to be correct, but for my state, Utah, I don't believe they are.
Brigham Young University has been doing statewide exit polls for over twenty years. They have a very good reputation for accuracy. They show Kerry with 26.5% of the vote; Mitofsky's numbers are 4% higher. Exit polls are traditionally accurate; something is wrong.
If all states had independent exit polls, it might shed some light. Mitofsky must make his data and methodology public.
