I CONFESS
I hijacked the poll.

I was playing around. If you look at earlier posts from today, I was being more of a smart-ass than normal.

I did not take the poll as seriously as it was intended, and my prank has caused headaches I did not really intend.

I've played around like this making Sharpton win a poll here or there for no good reason.

Here is the post I did it on:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=446324&mesg_id=447541&page=

Notice the URL of the broken image. It is a fallacy of the software - but note - many media station polls are fallable in such a similar way. You can make other's vote without their knowledge. It is a tactic to "DU" a poll, and I used it for evil.

I apologize!
