On Polls

National Review Online’s The Corner has all the latest gossip, rumor, and innuendo on exit polls. As of 3:49pm EST, one rumor has Sununu up by two. The Corner also has “early down arrows” for Carnahan, Mondale, Cleland, Dole, Allard, and Hutchinson. If these predictions hold (and they won’t), it will probably come down to NH and SD — both of which the GOP needs to win in order to retake the Senate. (This assumes that SC and TX go GOP; this is a pretty good bet). Of these early figures, the down arrow for Dole is highly dubious. Take these with a grain of salt.
