Dan Malloy Connecticut Gubernatorial AP Release

AP issued a statement that Foley has a lead of 8,424 votes over Malloy, w all but 1.5% of the precincts in. Let's analyze that statement: 1.5% represents 18K outstanding votes, far larger than the margins under consideration. The AP "contribution" is undeterminative and adds nothing, one way or the other, to our understanding of the situation. It should NOT be confused for something more significant. Susan Byciewicz will be releasing official (significant) tallies at noon.
