Hard to believe, but you have here PA at 58-42 Kerry while Zogby has it "Trending Kerry"; OH 52-47 Kerry and Zogby has it Bush +2 "Trending Kerry", and FL 52-48 Kerry, and Zogby "Kerry 0.1%, Trending Kerry".

How's a layman to make sense of this?

Does the Florida exit poll factor in the early voting? If not, then Bush is even further behind.

Blogs Send Stocks Lower on Talk of Kerry Victory
Tue Nov 2, 2004 05:28 PM ET

"NEW YORK (Reuters) - Internet blogs touting what they said were exit polls showing Democratic challenger John Kerry ahead in early voting in the American presidential election sent U.S. stocks and the dollar lower on Tuesday.

Stocks rallied early on Election Day but sank in afternoon trading after mostly pro-Kerry blogs cited results they said showed the Massachusetts senator leading President Bush in early voting in key states like Pennsylvania, Florida and Ohio.

The blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average finished 18.66 points lower at 10,035.73, but the Standard & Poors 500 Index edged up 0.07 point to close at 1,130.58 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index picked up 4.92 points to end the day at 1,984.79."

So let me see if I have this straight - the Dow finishes down by approximately 0.02%, the S&P "edged up" by 0.006%, the NASDAQ picked up 0.05% - and this is all the fault of those nasty, hateful, Kerry-loving Internet blogs?

Sounds like somebody at Reuters needs a heavy dose of "reality-based thinking" .....

Can you please explain to me why the NY Times is attributing today's stock market jitters to the possibility of a drawn-out election with no clear winner--while the Wall Street Journal attributes the swoon to early exit polls and DRUDGERY. . .indicating a trend toward a Kerry win. So which paper is right--or are they both wrong?

Not just Reuters. The AP also blamed the Dow loss on the prospect of a Kerry win. If anything, the early exit polls (if accurate) show that a Kerry win is certain. Here I thought the markets LOVED certainty.
