Let's get at least 1,000 DUers voting in a DU poll of all candidates
for once-regardless of who you support, it should be easy to get a minimum of 1,000 votes in a straw poll of all announced Democratic candidates here with whatever our claimed membership is.

Since GD has a lot of traffic and the poll is in GDP here's a link to it-it takes seconds from your visit here-do it.

Think of what we could discuss after a 1,000 vote DU poll!!!

Consider this a community challenge to a community of thousands. Let's DU it.

"10-26-2007 DU straw poll of all announced Democratic candidates"
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3649440

Keep this kicked until we get a thousand vote DU poll of all announced Democratic candidates, maybe the overnight Mods might want to help via kicks--I, for one, want to view the results of such an unprecedented thing here.

DU it.

It is so nice to see Kucinich on a ballot. Gets pretty depressing sometimes. Peace, Kim

8. All these candidates where selected by corporations,
to make us believe that we live in a democracy, try putting a candidate in the poll that is selected by the people, you may be able to get a thousand.

12. My bet is a larger sample won't change the result
It will just be a larger sample. But go for it.

18. Where's the version with Al? Just to be fair -- I would vote for Edwards in
a poll without Al, but only if there is a separate poll with Al so I can vote for him.

20. It's a poll for announced candidates. Gore is not an announced candidate, therefore he's not
in the poll. It would be nice if you voted in it anyway, because the idea is to get a 1,000 vote sample of DUers.

You could start your own poll to include Gore, if you'd like. I'd vote in that poll, too.

24. Thank you! I love your avatar, of course!
I found the prayer wheel years ago, thanks to another DUer who's not here anymore. You're welcome to copy it and add it to your own sig if you want. The more prayer wheels spinning, the better, I figure. :D

21. I did a poll a few days ago...
Limiting the choices to the top 3 candidates - Obama, Clinton, Edwards.

I did just 3 candidates because in all likelihood, those 3 will be the last ones standing.

Edwards beat both Obama and Clinton by a 5 to 1 margin.

Kicking yours too :)

30. I love how Clinton is trailing
And Kucinich is leading.

Just goes to show you how ignorant the general population is compared to most DUers.
