polls... :grr:

[verse18]

5. done

[ShortnFiery]

6. Done but nothing's registering yet.

:shrug: Maybe I'm a super early bird? ;)

[ihelpu2see]

7. I voted but it is 0% to 0% results ???? nt

[lisa58]

8. They apparently don't want to know...

...what we think.

[TNOE]

9. Done

still showing 0%

[rpannier]

10. Done

backwash 26%

[aquart]

28. I got zero zero. Pfui.

[rpannier]

46. I have no idea why you're not getting any results

I live in Asia and my cnn is set for CNN International. The results I have are:

Do you agree with Democrat charges that U.S. President George W. Bush politicized the September 11 anniversary?

Yes 73% 412 votes

No 27% 153 votes
Total: 565 votes

I don't think it should matter whether its CNN or CNN International, but it might.

[MoonRiver]

11. Done. Waiting for results...

[woodsprite]

12. Still not registering. Maybe they just can't handle the truth. n/t

[ShortnFiery]

13. Let's monitor this closely and see if these bastards are truly

"The News only the Neo-Cons Can Trust" ? :grr:

[fasttense]

14. They already know the results and will post them at their leisure. n/t

[zcflint09]

15. Done--but it's still showing 0-0

Wonder if CNN decided to stop showing results after the poll started going the way the similar MSNBC poll went? (81% said Bush was using speech for political reasons)

Reminds me of the "600-0" troop coffin vote CNN had a few weeks ago before they finally had to pull it

[Janice325]

16. I just tried to vote.

It's still showing 0%.

[annabanana]

17. Oh.. this is one of THOSE polls....

If they are terribly embarrassed by the results, they just turn it off. Look for the results to change if it gets freeped enough to warrent their showing the votes. There were a lot of polls like this during '04 election...

(or look for a replacement question)

[ShortnFiery]

19. Corporate News Nazis! = CNN n/t

[Mist]

18. I just "0" and "0" too. nt

[Eugene]

20. Done - no numbers yet. n/t

[StraightDope]

21. The poll has been pulled as far as I can tell...

At least it's not prominent on their homepage.

[MoonRiver]

27. NO. It's still there.

Just aren't any results yet.

[StraightDope]

30. Where on the page can it be found?

[MoonRiver]

39. You have to scroll all the way to the right side of the page.

Then scroll down. It is about halfway down the page I think. There's so much stuff on CNN's homepage that these polls are hard to fine.

[filer]

22. I guess they didn't like my preference.

They didn't count it, apparently.

[pepperbear]

23. yep..voted and got 0-0 too n/t

[MissMarple]

24. Everything is about politics to George, everything.

And regarding the poll, perhaps there needs to be a thresh hold number of votes before any are counted.:shrug:

[Greyhound]

25. I guess they didn't like the way the vote is going.

{Return; (void)}

[IChing]

26. another poll that is gonna be manipulated and false results

How many times have we seen no results cause they are afraid of the truth?

[Lowell]

34. Looks like this is a Diebold Poll

for sure. I can't believe it is taking this long for any votes to register.

[Richard Steele]

Still 0/0; perhaps the results are not to their liking?

[rpannier]

29. Update on their poll

It's
Yes 73%
Bushitler 27%

Tried to use day of mourning for political gain 70% 1949 votes
Total: 2781 votes

[Subdivisions]

49. Did ya'll see the earlier poll? Here is the results:

http://www.cnn.com/POLLSERVER/results/27316.content.html

The disparity between *'s Rasmussen approval rating of 44% after last night's address and this poll is dubious.

[gumby]

51. 1949 votes

30% Dear Leader

[Liberal Dose]

66. Done

[Blue Belle]

67. Done!

[karlrschneider]

68. So it's counting now, eh? Hmmm

:kick:

[Booster]

69. Vote, then pass this on to people on your email list. I think this is

one of the most important questions asked. If we can get it into people's heads that Bush is and has used 9/ll for his own political gain, we can get people to asking questions that have not been answered.

[Lowell]

70. Every other word out of his mouth

for the past five years has been "911". He has used it since day one. It is a shame that it has taken the rest of the country this long to realize 911 has been politicized and exploited all along.

[BrightKnight]

71. done - n/t

[Uncle Joe]

72. 70% now say he tried to use it for political gain.

[il_lilac]

81. done n/t

[countingbluecars]

82. Done n/t

[n2doc]

83. Done. But the BFEE already admitted they were using it for gain

In the weekend Wall Street Journal there is an article stating that Bushco was hoping that 9/11 would improve his political position going into the fall elections. They admit it, at least in their own publications.
