I need to review what I posted, but my intention was that this mechanism
would account for under-representation of voters in the exit polls for
left-leaning candidates.  I am thinking of a list of factors that account
for inaccuracies in exit polls.  There were factors on both sides, but this
one looked like a biggie to me, or perhaps my view is being influenced by
the bad section of town where I grew up.  My memory is vague, it is entirely
possible that the list I am referring to was partly derived on ExI.  Did we
discuss this before?
