You are right, I am sure. I refreshed my screen twice; Trump and Sanders were both up about 200 votes in 15 seconds.

Rubio went up 7 votes, most others, none.

Cheat? The Drudge “poll” is for entertainment, not to actually measure support to candidates.

I doubt an internet poll is that relevant for Democrats. More GOP are online.

You can argue about polls....but....the fact is, Hillary Clinton is “dead-in-the-water” politically. She will soon withdraw from the POTUS race....if she is not indicted first as a full blown felon!!!

It didn’t allow me to vote twice.

It must keep an IP address.

So I’m thinking it’s a good poll of drudge viewers.

Trump is the winner.

She won’t withdraw because it increases he likelihood she gets indicted. Plus don’t under estimate the super delegate lock put in place for Hillary by Debbie Wasserman.

This is will go down as the most amazing and unusual political campaign for the presidency in American history.

After untangling the tortured opening sentence, I still have to disagree with the author's statement.

In the election of 1860, Lincoln beat Breckenridge, Bell and Stephen Douglas. All of them won states. Lincoln won a majority of electoral votes with under 40% of the popular vote. The War of 1861 started shortly after.

In the Hayes-Tilden election, there were 11 states with two sets of election returns. For Hayes to win, he needed all 11. Ultimately, a deal was struck, and Hayes was inaugurated, but Reconstruction was ended.

But I have been assured that Christian conservatives prefer the default election of socialist/communist Sanders to the election of Trump, and thus millions of Christian conservatives will sit out.

Christian conservatives I am told are ok with the certain final destruction of America, and ok with the certain elevation of four leftists to the Supreme Court to finally destroy our Constitution.

I am reliably told Christian conservatives know with absolute certainty that Trump could not possibly be a satisfactory president.

Unless she gets indicted, the. Nomination is Hillary’s. She has the Superdelegates locked up, needs well less than a majority of regular delegates and primary votes to win. Numericly there’s no way Bernie can climb that particular hill.

Wrong. Regular people only get to vote once. An I voted cookie is set on your machine. I used to sway online polls. Was easy. IOPUS Imacros script. 4 lines, making sure you clear the I already voted cookie. 3 minutes to set up, and then let it run it from my 5 connected machines and 100,000 votes in a few hours. Pollsters got wise to that so... Today it is a bit more difficult. You have to spoof the orig IP as well as all the Unique identifier stuff. Might even have to spoof your routing info. Pay me a few bucks, and I can still do it from my home with hardware I already own with a less than stellar Internet connection.

On-line polls belong to the technocrati. If I spent a few hours, any script kiddy out there could own any on-line poll easily. As is, it is a waste of my time. You are right that people can vote multiple (literally millions) times, you just don’t understand who those people who have the knowledge to do that are. Geeky nerds in their moms basements. ie. Berny supporters.

Funny how people get worked up over a “poll” that allows multiple votes.

***************************************

I have tried to vote more than once several times on Drudge and it has always told me I have already voted.

I suppose I could ask to use my next door neighbor’s computer (address) but does not seem worth the effort.

8:18 am est

Trump 36%
Sanders 30%
Cruz 19%

The drudge poll has conservatives at 55%, communists at 30%
I am surprised the communist is doing so well, but consider 0bama has put the US into a depression for seven years

Jeb! 1% (10,305 votes)
Clinton 1% (10,096 votes)
Bwhaahaahaaa

I wouldn’t assume it was some script. It’s conviction and enthusiasm. Some blog that communists lurk in probably mentioned the poll.

Hillary voters have no convictions or principles. No enthusiasm. She’s a greedy old fart. Sanders supporters are enthusiastically hell bent on destroying the USA. They hate it.

this is a one vote one person poll

No, it is not. That is why it doesn't have real meaning. Enthusiasm really helps when you can vote several times. Not the case in the real elections.

Sanders had a few 1000 votes last night at 8pm CDT. This morning he has over 340,000. Assuming a 12 hour cycle that is over 7 votes per second all night long. I’m rounding down on the votes and rounding up on the time, so the real number is lager than this.

Sanders is a one of a kind in the race, being an admitted outright socialist.

If a race boiled down to just Trump and Sanders, those voting for the others would be more apt to vote Trump, which would put him over the top by a considerable margin.

It wouldn't be to me either.. but it wasn't necessary.
