The Truth Is Out There

The Seattle Times has some good coverage of the vote fraud today, including a link to this PDF from University of Pennsylvania faculty member Steven Freeman. This PDF is a second version of his much-discussed paper titled "The Unexplained Exit Poll Discrepancy."

Freeman has compiled raw exit poll data for statistical purposes, but is still asking for reader help with the missing pieces of the jigsaw:
If anybody has *Virginia*, that's all I need to complete the data set! If you viewed the Virginia exit poll on election night, please let me know. You may still have it in your computer memory!

I also need sample size for NY, NJ, or NC.
Meanwhile, Mystery Pollster has details of a discussion with Liz Doyle of Edison Media Research (the company that ran the exit poll along with Mitofsky International), who says their raw exit poll data will not be made public for another three months - why not?
Ms. Doyle politely informed me that the [raw] data I was requesting would be available via the Roper Center and due to the unprecedented demand for the data, the NEP was working as quickly as possible to prepare the data for public use. However, these unweighted data couldn’t be expected for at least three more months.
I suggest everybody contact Edison Media Research and the Roper Center and ask them to explain the reasons for such a long delay.
