1. You should put "Bush leading" in your headline?

More action. :hi:

Thanks for the heads up!

[funky_bug]

2. Done - What is going on? This AND CNN???

I think the freepers finally get the spin-war thing. We need NOT to rest.

[Awsi Dooger]

28. Simple, freepers are prioritizing the correct online polls

The local TV station and newspaper online polls don't mean squat compared to national/international networks. You have what, a dozen political programs on MSNBC and CNN later today and especially Sunday?

These results may be quoted on those network shows and influence public opinion before people go back to work on Monday.

4. MSNBC changed their poll requirements

I have always been able to vote in their polls up until last night. I use Mozilla but I found I can only now participate by opening up IE. I'm sure they had their partner Microsoft tweak the settings in hopes of getting a different outcome from the past shrub failures.

8. having trouble with it too and I use Mozilla

Willing to bet more of us use Mozilla and have yanked IE off our PCs. Sorta like polls only calling land lines... gives skewed results BIG TIME.

[AmerDem]

12. Well at a minimum

They took away many people that have participated in the past by now only allowing IE. Go in with IE it will work.

[ogradda]

15. moan

how do i do that?

[AmerDem]

19. IE is ...Internet Explorer

more then likely you have it installed on your pc. Find it, double click on it and the Internet Explorer browser will open. You then goto MSNBC poll page and vote.

[ogradda]

23. got it - thank you

i'm not very computer literate i'm afraid :)

[havocmom]

25. No. many of us yanked that IE disaster off the PCs altogether

Cannot/will not put it back on, period. Too damned many flaws and weaknesses. Am willing to bet I am not alone in pulling it off the PC.

[AmerDem]

31. well then

I personally hate IE for reasons you bring up plus a few others but you have to face facts and understand it's the predominate browser out there and on many sites it will be the only to gain access.

[sugarcookie]

17. I use Firefox

It showed I voted already. I opened IE and it let me vote.

[AmerDem]

22. btw, as much as I dislike IE

I always keep it on my pc. There are still too many sites where Mozilla wont work. IE accounts for about 95% of all browser use out there. So most website gear there pages around IE.

Granted though IE's share has been slipping a lil lately thanks to Mozilla /Firefox becoming popular.

5. There must be a Bot being used

as somebody in a CNN thread alluded to. We should email CNN and MSNBC and let them know

[ScreamingMeemie]

6. It says I already voted...and I haven't.

:shrug:

[fsbooks]

13. Check your cookies

In mozilla: tools -> cookie manager

BTW, mozilla worked for me on Linux. But we have a long way to go, 59 Bush, 41 Kerry with 482123 responses.

[ScreamingMeemie]

30. Everything was wiped clean before I attempted to vote. I do this

every time. :hi:

[ElsewheresDaughter]

7. GET TO WORK DU!...it needs help

[Guaranteed]

10. It's been like that for WEEKS. nt

[shraby]

11. It isn't going to help

It's being bombed. I voted and the total votes was
47,907 then I went back and total was
47,956 then I went back and total was
48,2001

[shraby]

20. Whoops I erred

The numbers were
481907
481956
482001
482154

[ocean girl]

9. When I tried to vote in Safari, there was no poll on the page

then I tired Internet Explorer, the poll was right there and I was allowed to vote.

This is bullshit.

[bush equals idiot]

16. Last night 670, 000 votes on Hardball

was 70-30 for Kerry. This is not coming from the American voters.

[endnote]

27. Does anybody have screenshots

of the poll at different hours ? It must have changed within a couple of hours, undoing like 400K votes...

[ogradda]

14. it wont let me in

what the hell..

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

21. same problem here

when I click on the link, all I get are the results but not the question.

[ogradda]
