E-I General Election 2011 Exit Poll

[carlos marvado]

Tomorrow I will be setting up an exit poll for E-I members who took part in the General Election. The exit poll will open at 7:00 am to coincide with the opening of polling stations and will close at midnight (2 hours after polling stations close).

Only those members who actually vote tomorrow are requested to participate and you should have voted in the election before taking part in the exit poll.

You will be asked to indicate which party (or independent) the candidate stood for to whom you gave your first preference vote.

The exit poll will be a secret poll.

At the end we will compare and contrast the E-I exit poll with the national exit poll and the final outcome of the election to determine if the membership of E-I is any more perverse than the nation as a hole (sorry that should read whole).

Nice one, Brother Marvado. What is, may I ask, the margin of error?

[Morpheus]

Excellent idea Carlos. I have a feeling the E-I exit poll will be far more streamlined than the national vote.

Nice one, Brother Marvado. What is, may I ask, the margin of error?

Depends on how many take part and how many of their user names they use. Your mate Alec Horan could fill a f**king quota all by himself. I estimate the margin of error could be as much as + or - 50%.....but El Gordo is the statistician.

Harumph Carlos !!


as a anarchist I shall not be voting and neither will any of me 'mates'

until as such a time we have a true democracy, none of which yet exist even in the western world, i shall refrain from the odious practice of once every 5 year or so putting your life in some numbnuts hands and then flipping off and doing nothing but complain about the said numbnuts stupidity, incompetence, greed etc in the 5 years in between

bollocks to ye all



(please dont ban me )

Ahh Alec at least do the decent anarchistic thing........walk into the polling station and spoil your vote......just scribble "Mousey for President" across the ballot paper.

This is the internet age Pinkeye, maybe I can persuade Patricia to put it in twitter......otherwise I will negotiate with youporn.com.

[Pinkeye]

Ha ha youporn...could have a huge hit there especially if done like the naked news. I know it would make the election more interesting for me especially if you manage to get sharon ni bheolain to do the hosting.

We've even got a presenter from Mexico lined up to do the weather forecasts during the day.
