Election 9:22pm

No surprises so far, yet Bush is 155 v. Kerry's 112. The votes are far from counted -- but it seems pretty clear that Slate's early exit polling was not very accurate, at all. They had Kerry up in Florida by 1%, but now, with 53% of the precincts reporting, Bush is up 53 v. 46.

Hi Bob - note that the networks are carefully NOT calling Florida even though Bush has that big lead in the vote tally. What this means: Exit poll projections + vote tally lead to a race that's too close to call.

In other words: The precincts that have reported so far were predicted to go for Bush.

Umm... okay. I guess I take that all back. Clearly the exit poll indications were biased towards Kerry.

For some unknown reason.
