Delights from The Last Word today

Quickly. MSNBC was quite keen to jump all over Fox for their now-infamous poll results that added to 105%. Tonight, Lawrence O'Donnell quoted a poll of exit voters where there was 38% Retardican, 38% Democrat, 28% Independent. Yes, that's 104%. Clearly that's sharp evidence of voter fraud on the Retardican side. ;)

Evidently you and the Dims have never heard of rounding.

I sure have, obviously. But perhaps you, then, can explain how a 3 item poll can result in a 4% error by 'rounding'? Or, in the case of Fox's poll reports, how a 3 item poll can result in a 5% error by 'rounding'?
