Sometime back I participated in a poll on the American Family Association website. If memory serves, it was an anti-gay-rights push poll they were running to get some chunky numbers to throw at liberals. Lots of liberals heard about it and, well, sort of spoiled their poll.

They started another just recently, and their automated website scripts are carefully asking all prior pol participants to come cast their vote for president. The result? As of 11.13 pm, the poll for the self-proclaimed "America's Largest Pro-Family Online Action site" is showing 1,127 votes for Raplh Nader (6%), 635 votes for George Bush (3.5%), abd 16,450 votes for John Kerry (90%).

let's hope the election comes out the same way...

It's still there when I click on the link from my email program. Their thing must be clever enough to tell th difference between a direct referral from an email and someone just pasting the link on the web.

When I go from their website, it tells me that the poll ID#10 has been closed, though. So the final results must be the ones they're showing when I go through the links on my email:

Kerry 25,784 (89.5%)
Bush 1,023 (3.57%)
Nader 1,857 (6.48%)

(I notice they include Nader, but not any of the other 60+ "alternative" candidates. (http://www.politics1.com/p2004.htm)

Their current poll question is:

Would you be willing to boycott MTV advertisers?

For years MTV has been sexually exploiting our children. The Super Bowl show, which contained Janet Jackson grabbing her breasts, Nelly repeatedly fondling his crotch, striptease cheerleaders, gyrating transvestites, simulated lesbian sex, a "performer" who wore the American Flag as a poncho, and Jackson and Justin Timberlake groping each other in addition to Jackson's exposed breast, was mild compared to other MTV programs. (Click here for example of MTV programming. WARNING: This contains extremely offensive material.)

MTV would not be able to exploit our children without the financial support provided by advertisers who finance this type of programming.

I notice they're getting "smarter"; you can only vote "yes" in this poll...

*snort* That's not a poll. That sounds like a totalitarian's idea of a ballot.

Indeed. At least it does take care of their former problem. As most people's mums told them early on "Don't ask a question if you don't want to hear the answer." :-)
