MoveOn doing a poll

i got this email today.
Dear North Carolina MoveOn member,

We need your help making an important decision: What position should MoveOn take on Amendment 1, which would constitutionally ban marriage equality in North Carolina?


i immediately voted and mentioned in the comments that for this proposed law, i was surprised they asked.

now i'm going to donate to protectncfamilies.org

is MoveOn losing touch? or is it part of their charter that they cannot take a position unless the issue has been properly polled?

MoveOn doing a poll (Original Post) barbtries Mar 2012 OP
It's more likely just a way for them to get you to visit their site and possibly donate money. n/t PoliticAverse Mar 2012 #1

but i was so nonplussed that they were asking about a no-brainer that i went and donated to the organization that is working here in NC to defeat the measure, so that backfired.
