Vote for Edwards in Democracy for America online poll

[dragonlady]

Here's what I got back after voting in this poll, run by DFA, the organization started by Howard Dean. If the winner gets over 66% of the vote, DFA will endorse that candidate. If over 50%, they will do a mailing on behalf of the candidate. As you can see, Edwards is currently leading as I write this.

Thanks for participating in the DFA Pulse Poll.Your first choice vote for Former Senator John Edwards has been recorded. John Edwards is currently 1st in the poll.

Help your candidate win by getting out the vote from your friends, family, and co-workers. You can send them a personal email with this link:

5. On the right side of the page

click on Live Results and you'll get a bar chart that shows the current totals. Al Gore has amassed a huge write-in vote and now leads with 30.53%. Of those who are actively running, Edwards has 22.58%, followed by Obama 17.21%, Kucinich 14.25%, Clinton 6.12%, Richardson 3.61%, and the rest below that. so John Edwards is doing very well indeed.

The poll continues until November 5, and people can change their votes by voting again with the same e-mail address and the prior vote will be overwritten. If it becomes clear before then that Gore is not going to run, I would expect a large portion of his votes could swing over to Edwards.

6. Is this an email harvest ?

They won't take my "vote" unless I enter my e-addy.

I also saw a diary on Dkos about Gore kicking butt on this poll, then again the DraftGore folks are really rallying for the write in vote for this poll too.

:shrug: Last time I saw the results, Gravel was ahead of Dodd :rofl:

7. You could start a hotmail account or something

Lots of people do that for things they don't want to clutter up their main e-mail. I used my alternate address when I signed Dodd's petition on the telecomm amnesty (thought he deserved some praise for that).

Our challenge to Al Gore: Jump In or Drop Out!

Something surprising is happening at Democracy for America; former Vice President Al Gore is leading the race for the DFA Presidential endorsement -- as a write-in candidate.

Voting is still open until November 5 at midnight, and there is plenty of time for any candidate to win. All your candidate needs is your vote right now:

Despite the fact that Al Gore has not announced that he will run and wasn't even included in the endorsement poll, DFA members have seized the power and written him in. With over 65,000 votes cast so far, the time has come for Vice President Gore to make a decision.

The clock is ticking. We are deep into the 11th hour. There are fewer than 90 days until the first votes are cast. And filing deadlines to be on the ballot start closing in just days.

You deserve to know. Is Al Gore in or out?

Together, we are the boots on the ground that knock on doors, make phone calls, and recruit new supporters whether advocating for the next president or electing Governor Howard Dean to Chair the Democratic National Committee. DFA members are working to take our country back and the DFA endorsement is worth more than just words to the candidate that wins.

Vote for your candidate now:

Of course, this is not an ordinary endorsement poll. All voters are asked for their top three choices. And in the end, only an announced candidate can win the DFA endorsement. That means this will be the first poll in the nation that can accurately report both the remarkable support Al Gore has in the progressive grassroots AND which announced candidates earn that support if he never jumps in.

When we announce the results on November 6th, one year from Election Day, everyone will be watching.

Don't keep us waiting, Mr. Gore. It is time for an answer.
