2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Who won the debate? [View all]SheilaT
(23,156 posts)35. Yes! Totally unfair!
I am quite astonished by the apparent naivete of the Hillary supporters who honestly and sincerely believe that the ONLY reason Bernie wins on-line polls is because of a cadre of dedicated robots who simply click on the on-line polls, endlessly and repeatedly.
As it happens, if a poll is asking something like, Who won the debate, and since I don't watch the debates I don't vote, but I'm interested in the outcome, I can't imagine I'm the only honest person out there who doesn't vote something she can't vote on.
