"Stop the NRA" Poll - Hit It

If you clear your cookies you can vote more than once. ;)
 
I am looking forward to the "The NRA sent all of its minions to vote! So it doesn't really show what Americans want!!" whining later.

Sites like these would be great comedy if the rocket scientists running them weren't serious.
 
Did anybody notice the following, at the bottom of the home page:

"Tell congeries how we feel: VOTE NOW"

"congeries"???

They got one thing right on that poll. It is certainly a heap.:D
 
I believe you are over-thinking this - it is likely just a progressive spell-check....
:D
 
I voted! Something doesn't add up. They indicate about 30K votes with approximately 10K opposed and 9K approving or 32% opposed vs. 29% approving. Must be new math:confused:
 
CNN has gone in and fixed the results, their numbers don't even add up.
 
I love overly simplistic "polls" like this. Suppose you agree with most or only some of what the NRA's policies are. Then what?

Oh, and since I'm a big fan of transparency... :D

Feel free to drop "Shai Mashiach" an E-mail at [email protected] and ask the registrant why they enjoy playing games with phony internet polls.

Edited to Add: According to LinkedIn, this Shai fellow seems to be really rolling in the bucks with his upscale realty business...

Sounds like a typical boilerplate response. I wonder if I'll get the same one in return?

If I do, do you think he'll attempt to sell me some primo real estate in sunny Florida? Or a bridge, perhaps? :p
 
Hacked? They were probably overwhelmed by the positive to NRA responses and shut the poll down to save embarrassment. My guess is that they will declare the pro NRA votes invalid due to the hack and show that most people are opposed to the NRA. Liberal progressives would never let truth get in the way of proving their agenda.
 
Cashed image I found on FB before they were "hacked". :D
