It is worth tracking differences between counties that use e-voting (optical-scan and touch screen) compared with paper voting. The trend doesn't appear to match.

Overall, I don't believe we change the voting data to match the exit polls. My personal hypothesis right now is that as the number of people utilizing absentee ballots climb, the exit poll becomes less accurate.

You might want to look for a more objective source than Kathy Dopp's ustogether.org.

Example:

Clinton Record

Worked with UN, NATO and/or allies to bring peace to Kosovo, Bosnia, Northern Ireland and East Timor, promoted Middle East peace process, reduced North Korean nuclear threat through Framework Agreement and saved Mexico from currency crisis.

Bush Record

Cowboy unilateralist diplomacy, no interest in Middle East peace process, increased North Korean threat through Axis of Evil and pigmy comments, ignored Argentinean-Brazilian currency crisis.
