Poll Watching: The Infallibly Accurate SuperPoll

[MineralMan]

There's one poll that always produces accurate results, but you won't find it in the MSM until after the election. It's always 100% accurate and provides results you can count on. It always contains surprises, and beats all of the other polls all hollow. The SuperPoll is the only poll you can count on!

It's the only poll taken on election day and it's nationwide and covers every race on every ballot. It's also the only poll that every eligible voter can participate in. You can participate in many places before election day, as well.

I encourage everyone to participate in this sure-fire poll that provides accurate results. Here's how:

Get up off your comfortable chair and make the short trip to the polling place in your own precinct. Mark your ballot and submit it for counting. It's a little late now, but you could also participate through early voting or absentee voting.

To learn the results of this SuperPoll, turn on your television at the time the polling places close and tune into your favorite network or cable news channel. Grab a snack or fluff up your pillow and watch the poll results come in. By 11 PM, you'll know the results for most races, but you may have to wait until the next morning to get all of the results. In a very few cases, the poll results won't be available until a recount takes place or a runoff election is held.

If you participate in this poll, you'll be eager to learn how it comes out, I'm sure. You could encourage everyone you know to participate, too, and have a big party to see the results, complete with adult beverages, tasty snacks and interesting conversation.

The SuperPoll happens on November 4, 2014. Be There or Be Square!

GOTV 2014 and Beyond!

1. This poll tallied by Diebold

except for that small detail, and being unable to check the results against hard copy, the poll is 100% accurate

2. You know, the results of the SuperPoll are always the final results.

Is there cheating where you live? You can work on correcting that. Where I live, in Minnesota, the SuperPoll is fair, accurate, and proven to be valid. If that's not the case where you are, get busy and get your state's polling fixed. Even if you don't, the results of this SuperPoll will accurately predict the winner of every race.

On the eve of the election, I can't change how the votes are counted. In Minnesota, we've taken care of that already.

4. If you're in Pickens, SC, I wouldn't be

surprised if your election results are rigged or miscounted. However, what may be true there is not necessarily true everywhere. I'm not in South Carolina and have no way to alter how things are done there. If you live there and you can document vote counting fraud, I encourage you to do just that and report your evidence to the Department of Justice.

In my state of Minnesota, the voters of this state have ensured that our elections are accurately counted, and have two major statewide manual recounts to demonstrate our system's accuracy. It is up to the citizens of each state to see to it that their elections are fair and vote counts are accurate. The Department of Justice will help, but you'll have to get the evidence to them.

5. I'm in the bluest of blue and we use Diebold for some reason

Seriously, our real election is often the Dem primary. Maybe Diebold rigs that too?

But the main reason the GOP propaganda machine keeps spreading misery is to discourage Dem voters from voting. To make us feel like our vote doesn't count so why bother. They know they can't win on ideas.

3. You can also monitor the SuperPoll on DU.

There will be much discussion and anticipation, I'm very certain. Some recriminations and grumpiness, too, no doubt. Join the fun on DU for the SuperPoll!

6. Polling places are obsolete

I live in Washington state and all our elections are held by mail. We don't have to trudge down to some forsaken library or church basement to exercise our constitutional rights. A ballot arrives in the mail 3 weeks before the election and I sit down with my laptop, research the issues and candidates and vote in a calm, clear minded manner, without the pressure of a line of people waiting for me to finish. Washington state had the highest voter turn out in 2012, a whopping 81% of eligible voters.

High voter turnout is how we got gay marriage. High voter turnout is how we got legal pot. Not because our representatives were interested in doing what the citizens wanted (they aren't), our elections are so easy and stress free that we participate in the process.

Know what else? Republicans hate mail in voting. They can't win in high turn out elections so they do everything that they can to suppress the voting population. They can suppress, but its not impossible. So those of you in Red states who simply cannot be bothered, I say you get what you (don't) vote for.

7. I like mail in ballots very much,

and I'm glad you have them. Most states don't, and my post is general. I'm an old man and I like the whole ritual of voting in person at my polling place. While I'm there, I always see people I have talked to while doing canvassing in my precinct. In Minnesota, we can finally vote early and by mail. That's good, but I will still vote in person at my polling place. I hope you don't mind if I do that.I don't mind if you vote by mail.

8. Well, there ~was~ that little hiccup in 2000

You know, the one where Dubya's win was first announced by his cousin John Prescott Ellis on Fox News.

[MineralMan]

10. Oh, I remember that very well.

And GWB served two terms. I didn't say the results are always correct, but they are the results. I don't live in Florida. Minnesota didn't vote for Bush, and neither did California, where I lived at the time. We also didn't vote for Nader in numbers large enough for what happened in Florida to have happened.

Bottom line: Election day is still the only poll that counts.

9. Not that it matters much, but the internet is not designed to let people vote.

When we can vote using the internet, then we will have accomplished something!
Until then, it is just more porn and more bullshit.
