There seems to be an error in the "vote" you are currently running about the Democratic ad with the flag draped coffins. Only votes critical of the Democrats are being registered. Have you started using Diebold to count your votes?

38. That's similar to what I wrote. I asked if Quickvote was a division
of Diebold, because once again my vote was not being counted.

(I figured he might enjoy that since he's been critical of electronic voting.)

I asked them if they were going to report the false results, and then said, right.. you DO know how to DO THAT.

That's all I could do, or I would've gotten more and more angry.

"My vote did not count (I voted no, the "coffin" ad was not offensive). Makes me wonder if you are in the same crowd as the wingnuts in Ohio and Florida(as well as other places) who have no problem messing with the electronic vote in order to ensure their candidates "win." Is that what you are doing???

their CNN is one slip-shod operation. Only one step above Fox News. They owe the country an honest effort, and if they can't provide straight news to us, they should get out, as they have failed their obligation.

63. I went, but then I changed my mind because I don't want CNN to
have my personal info AND my opinions on a databank. (I know... I know... they probably have it already!) But, by having this information they are privy to at least a part of my mind...

But I feel as if this poll problem has a purpose of allowing them to process how many activists (meaning folks who will email in to complain about the problem) are still around. I think that this very biased RW news organ is just that...an organ of the RW being used to screw us in any direction we move.

Also, it is a very provocative error for any website of their visibility and supposed quality to entertain. They know that they get a lot of hits for these poll questions so what better to do than "create" a glaring problem that entices more and more visitors to the site? I think they MIHOP to provoke us, to make up some exciting news to divert our attention, to infuriate by making us feel helpless to change anything.
