Oh, the data, the data! Get ready to spend all afternoon listening to various statistics and polling data that will ultimately prove nobody knows a damn thing about statistics and polling data.

Forget the predictably unpredictable exit polls. We conducted our own survey of voters and collected some real data:

PERCENTAGE OF VOTERS WHO:
  • Left the polling station and had a sudden panic attack that they 
accidentally voted for the wrong guy: 61%
  • Took lewd photos of themselves in the voting booth: 10%
  • Were undecided until receiving message from God at second they stepped into booth: 16%
    • Percentage of that group who voted for McCain: 100%

  • Were named "Mickey Mouse": 23%
  • Saw their neighbor, Mr. Jimmy Liberal, vote for McCain: 18%
  • Looked at a black voter and tried to say "I"m voting for your guy" with their eyes: 94%
  • Wept openly: 65%

  • Lied to a pollster: 99%
