Exit Polls !!!!
Blacked out in Italy. Easily available on the web. Lo stato Italiano protegge il pubblico dal informazione but who will watch the watchers and guard The Guardian
In the vote for the senate, for which only voters over the age of 25 are eligible, Berlusconi's Freedom Folk party had a lead of around 4%, according to revised figures.
In the ballot for the lower house of the Italian parliament, the chamber of deputies, where the voting age threshold is 18, the gap between the two main parties narrowed to two percentage points.
In both cases, the range of possible error – around 4% - was wide enough to allow for a reverse when the actual results come in.
Wow 4% in the Senate is not likely to give him a majority !
The Telegraph agrees with The Guardian ! Has this ever happened before ?
