Small-town Ohio newspaper poll.
The Norwalk Reflector serves rural and sub-rural areas of north central Ohio (where I'm from).

There is usually an online poll. Here is this weeks poll with the current votes:

As the death toll in Iraq continues to rise, do you think it's time for the U.S. to change its strategy?

50 No, we should stay the course and get the job done.
36 Yes, we should pull out now and cut our losses.
41 Yes, we need to establish a clear time line to pull out.
13 Yes, we should stay, but we should scale back.
4 Undecided.



If you want, you can take the survey at
www.norwalkreflector.com

4. Probably total votes
I wouldn't assume percentages, they're usually labelled as such

5. Are those percentages, or are they just the number of people voting?

6. 144% voted in that poll? It's a Magic Ohio FREEPER poll!
:eyes: If they're going to change poll results, the least they could do is make the % numbers equal 100.:eyes:
