While the OP claims there are 'only two choices' I see the poll itself has 3 choices Bluenorthwest Jun 2013 #98

Keep it between the lines. I made TWO choices in my poll. I did not add a third. graham4anything Jun 2013 #101

And yet the Third choice is leading in your own poll, the vote rejects your binary Bluenorthwest Jun 2013 #111

in almost all elections in USA, the majority of people don't vote. In L.A.-70% did not vote. graham4anything Jun 2013 #113

When you're known for word salad posts, logic is not included. hobbit709 Jun 2013 #103
