I know some are probably tired of voting in newspaper polls
Edited on Thu Aug-05-04 07:19 PM by Snoggera
and I have gotten that way myself (though I do whenever I see one).

My alma-mater town has a poll going, and it's not looking too good (and it bothers me. It's a small town, and I would love to get their response from a mass DU vote.

It's a simple question:

Who will you vote for?

Please go here and vote for the candidate of your choice if you care anything about those of us educated in small towns across this nation!

Thanks!

5. Thanks!
The poll only asks who you want to vote for; don't have to live in the county or something goofy like that, so I feel so good about having those who read, not only online, but in the published edition later, the results of this!

May make a few change their minds if they know there are others out there voting for JOHN KERRY (or other)!

21. I am so proud of everyone that added a post to the poll
thank you everyone!

Places like this need waking up, and this may be a small way to do it. If even one person looks and recognizes that there are kerry voters out there, they may think twice, and vote the "right" way.

thank you again. It's a small world, but it matters!
