WHICH horse are you backing in the Italian election? A blog appears to have found a way around a publishing ban on polls in the two weeks before the vote by writing up the results of pretend "underground horse races," which appear to reflect each party's standing.
During the blackout period, pollsters are banned from publishing their findings in case they influence the vote today and tomorrow.
But the Internet is more difficult to control. Bloggers Andrea Mancia and Simone Bressan posted "The illegal races return!" on their site Notapolitica.it.
