1. Calling "Foul!"
I voted "Yes", and my vote was invalidated. Saying that I already voted this poll this week. No I didn't.

Fraud.

2. That's typical of the industry---
Rigging the system to make sure they win.

5. Should post this on a certain 'chan and ask for personal army support
If they can rig a Time 100 poll they can sure make this a 99% yes 1% no.

6. There does seem to be some amount of change to this poll.
The site tried to load a cookie on my computer but I wouldn't let it. I thought it would not let me vote but it did.

Does hydraulic fracturing as it is practiced today endanger public health?

No (59%, 145 Votes) Yes (32%, 79 Votes) Not sure (9%, 20 Votes) Total Voters: 244

10. Much as I would enjoy
flipping this silly, little poll, I doubt if an industry that blithely deprives a township (Dimock) of clean drinking water will allow the poll to go against them. Seriously, the industry frackers have no scruples.

But thanks to all who tried!

12. Done..
the chemicals used in the fracking process will seep into ground water, therefore it is a danger to public health.
