More blogging soon, including some updates from our correspondent on the California voting reality beyond Beverly Hills. As he notes to me via email, these stats are by nature complex, particularly in California where the poputation is fluid (not Bev Hills, however). For those who wrote to remind me that the exit polls were suspect. Of course I know that. Otherwise you shouldn’t waste your time on this blog.

I don’t think I understood your meaning here exactly, but it seems to me there are a thousand reasons to waste one’s time on this blog!

A little jetlagged here. What I meant is: I thought everybody knew those exit polls were skewed my now. Who needs reminding? In other words, duh.
I am dying to find out what your friend finds out——–???
I have to say, I just read the TIMES article about the despair in Hollywood, and the entire time I was reading it I was thinking: Are 1 or 2 of these Despairing Folks secretly not quite so despairing?
I ask because I personally have not revealed my own lack of despair to some.
Are there ANY reliable demographic breakdowns for the vote results? How is the data captured at the polling precincts?
I suppose the best proxy would be election results by ZIP code – works well enough for the marketing folks.
