Poll:If the election were held today, who would you vote for?

This online poll showed up in my twitter feed this morning. It is running on a FOX Nation site, whose mission statement link appears on the page with the poll along with the following invitation to vote:

All Opinions Welcome
The Fox Nation is for those opposed to intolerance, excessive government control of our lives, and attempts to monopolize opinion or suppress freedom of thought, expression, and worship.
http://nation.foxnews.com/poll/2015/12/02/if-election-were-held-today-who-would-vote-for/

I know some here don't participate in online ("clicky&quot

polls, but I post it here anyway because I find the early results quite interesting considering it not likely that many Dem/Indy voters will visit Fox sites.

I kinda like how they put Repugs and democratic candidates in the poll. Sanders at 33 percent to trump 31 percent and that is on Fox! Think about that for a minute. That is actually amazing if you think about it. Fox audience picking Bernie! Never would have thunk it.

52 % of the voters so far intend to vote Democratic. Again: this is on FOX.
