Can U PLEASE give this poll some MAJOR help! The teachers of FL are fighting hard!
Please go to the link and click yes (Gov. Crist SHOULD veto the merit pay/student testing bill).

http://blogs.palmbeachpost.com/opinionzone/2010/04/09/veto-merit-pay-for-teachers/

If he vetoes it, it may help him but it'll hurt the Rs overall, as they'll descend into civil war and it'll drive a dagger into the heart of Jeb! Someone on the dark side is deleting their cookies and voting NO in this poll. VOTE YES for a VETO.

4. It's working! K&R! Please keep going.
We ALL need to drive a dagger into Jeb Bush's heart. He is the one behind this abuse of Florida's teachers. He is trying to make Crist sign this, but this could hurt all Republicans in Florida if Crist vetoes. Crist is under ENORMOUS pressure to veto!!!!

19. BUMP! Jeb Bush's supporters are working on this poll. They keep
clicking NO with some sort of computer prorgram that is erasing cookies and revoting. We need it to be YES!!!!!

Understand that Charlie Crist is under enormous pressure to veto this bill and I think he is going to. Please help put pressure on him!!!!

21. It's down to 53% YES and 47% NO. Their side is "winning". No other poll
is this close. NONE.

Completely unscientific and unrepresentative.

It was 50% - 50% last I checked. Wow! I wish we could attach merit based pay increases and pay decreases for politicians.

55. hint, hint
it will apparently let you vote as many times as you want. i abhor the merit pay idea, so i will have no problem spending the next 10 minutes clicking the yes button alot. good luck!

56. maybe not
it says "thank you we have already counted your vote" but it goes up at least one point every single time. maybe it's a glitch, or maybe it's some huge coincidence and every time i vote someone else happens to vote yes also. oh well. i do really hope the governor decided to veto this in any case.
