LEXINGTON, Ky. - From Renee Shaw, host of Connections, a series exploring Kentucky’s diverse minority communities, and host of election night coverage - A discussion with three Kentuckians about the presidential race: a Democrat, a Republican, and one independent who feels jilted by both choices. They discuss messages, policies, advertising, the impact of the debates, and parse out worse-case scenarios of a statistical tie in the electoral college vote. http://www.ket.org/cgi-bin/cheetah/watch_video.pl?nola=kcwrs+000809&altdir=&template= -

Reid Wilson of the National Journal: Pollsters are looking at the same data but coming to vastly different conclusions about Hispanic, young and other voters. In every election, the electorate grows and non-white voters increase, he said, and it will be interesting to see which pollsters interpreted the election outcome correctly.

Some polls, including Quinnipiac call cell phone-only voters. In other words we random-digit-dial cell phone numbers so that those voters are represented in the electorate to the extent that they're a percent of the electorate -- in some states as much as 20 percent or 25 percent. Some polls include these voters and some do not, and obviously those that don't are at some disadvantage. So some reflect cell phone users and some don't, and the weigh you find out is that you ask. Normally the media will identify the polls that call cell phones in their coverage, but I'm sure not everyone does. -

Clearly there are many more polls now than there used to be, and to a degree the large number of polls has created something of a "spectator sport" mentality in which people use the polls as part of their way of backing a candidate -- they cite this poll or that poll. Polls have been fairly ubiquitous and that's unlikely to change. There are many more public polls than there used to be. The question is which are the good ones and which aren't.

Social media users beware: taking photos of your marked ballots is illegal in Massachusetts.
Voters have been posting ballot photos to Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram accounts, among other Election Day shots.
The Commonwealth’s general laws state, “Whoever, at a primary, caucus or election, places any distinguishing mark upon his ballot, or makes a false statement as to his ability to mark his ballot, or allows the marking of his ballot to be seen by any person for any purpose not authorized by law, or gives a false answer to or makes a false oath before a presiding officer, shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than six months or by a fine of not more than one hundred dollars.”
Using hashtags like #showmeyourballot is being discouraged by celebrities, including “Family Feud” and “The Steve Harvey Show” host Steve Harvey (@IAmSteveHarvey), who Tweeted, “KeepVoting ! #StandUp & #ShowOut! Keep sending me pix of the lines & your stickers ! But NOT the Ballot !” -
