what the hell is up with CNN's web site?

[mike_c]

The top of the page says "BREAKING NEWS. CNN/ORC poll: 48% of registered voters watching debate say Ryan won. 44% say Biden won. Sampling error is +/- 5%."

The poll on the same page says:

Who do you think fared better in the vice presidential debate?
Biden 65% 6973
Ryan 35% 3694

WTF?

1. A web poll is not a real poll

4. They call it "quick vote"

3. Simply put,...

...I think someone gave them marching orders to say Ryan won, but the online voters...who ALSO saw the VP debate...just aren't cooperating.

LOL!!

5. If you can click fast enough and want to waste the time you can control web polls.

9. Not really

Most major polls now insert a cookie onto your computer or record IP addresses when you vote preventing your vote from being cast again. Of course you could clear your cache... but I wouldn't go and recommend something like that.
