Poll question about 1/3 of the way down the right side: "Should Speaker of the House John Boehner bring immigration reform to a vote in the House?"
Whoops, I keep forgetting FR doesn’t automate straight links like most email software.

Yep, dead text links are usually used for posts about unwelcome websites like DU, then the reader must go through the painful :'new window, copy and paste' set of steps.
It definitely took my no, but only after I temporarily allowed all scripts on the page. Used to be you could just identify the poll script and allow that, but I guess the sites are getting wise to the likes of the NoScript browser plugin.
FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. (multiple votes using multiple internetz devices are allowed!) And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)
Too bad... :^)
I voted no. 10,122 votes now 71% yes, 29% no. Don’t know if there is anyway to tell where it really ended up though.
70/30 now.
It’s currently 70% yes, but at the bottom, it said “You voted for this”. Does this mean I voted “yes”? Because I voted No.
Wouldn’t take my “no” vote.
It’s almost like voting in a Nevada when dingy Harry is on the ballot.
Now:
Yes 70%
No 30% (You voted for this)

Keep on FReepin’ on.
C'mon, freepers, freep this poll.
Every time a poll appears for our plucking, there's always the usual contingent that climbs on the thread saying it's "fixed".
It took my 'no' vote and the 'no' vote of my freeper neighbor.
This is the "Washington Compost", fer cryin' out loud! Their readership is probably damn near 100% lefties. I'm surprised we're doing as well as indicated.
I believe in PUSHBACK...we won't win this poll, but the enemy will know we're out here. Our goal should be to push our percentage up as high as possible in the time available, especially since it's this bird-cage-liner, commie newspaper.
Pour it on....this is a Freep....this is what we're here for, to do things like freeping polls, even losing them......and we don't want to discourage others from doing so.
So...let's get to work! We can always get SOME lemonade out of lemons!
Now hear this from the past...."Hard pressed on my right. My center is yielding. Impossible to maneuver. Situation excellent. I ATTACK!" (General Ferdinand Foch, 1st Battle of the Marne, Sept. 1914)

I figured it’s rigged, just proving it so you don’t have to.

“I figured its rigged, just proving it so you dont have to.”
I figured it was rigged too. But I think that’s a good thing. If they were confident enough to put out an unrigged pole I’d be more concerned.
Very true.
Yes 69%
No 31%
Boehner makes me SICK!!
