I would not be shocked at all to learn that they had graphics already made up for both. Some one just clicked the wrong file.

Just like at the DNC convention where the teleprompter already had the outcome of the floor vote.

According to the article they were testing software, so somebody had to feed the data to the computer to be displayed. I wouldn't read TO much into it, but it is curious.

That's why you have "B" Control. So you can test things "off the air".

Alf is correct!

The idea behind the Constitutional protections of our God given rights it RESPONSIBILITY!
If these idiots can't act responsible they are not fit to speak and print for public consumption!
Several years ago it was determined through scientific research that several factors influenced votes and even voter turn out. That is the reason they stopped poll results until after the last polls closed. It is time to quit this speculation!
