The Drudge Report attempted to pull off a ridiculous deception to make people think that Kamala Harris won the vice-presidential debate when in reality the poll showed people voted her as the loser by a landslide. What happened is that when the poll was first published on Wednesday night, Mike Pence was leading by about 65%. When I returned to see the latest poll results on Thursday morning, guess what was missing from the poll results? The NAMES. Yes, there were NO NAMES in the results showing the winner (Mike Pence) at about 71%. Even more deceptively, that 71% number showed up on top and when you voted it was also the name of Kamala Harris on top before they revealed the results. Therefore, it was obviously a pathetic attempt to make readers think Harris was the one who received that 71%.
That Matt Drudge has fallen so low in his Trump Derangement Syndrome as to attempt to pull off such an easily detectible deception speaks volumes of how he has completely lost all credibility.
PING!
When I went to the poll it shows their names. Pence 72%, Harris 29%.
Another good reason to never click on that site.
I just tweeted out the same thing after noting it here on a different thread a couple of hours ago. Drudge sold out and has gone full on lefty.
101% turnout? What is this, Philadelphia?
(HHOK: I know, rounding)
Personally, I support good things, and I oppose bad things, and I’m glad to see that someone did better than someone else last night.

This is probably a great reason not to use his site and not give him any hits.
The sooner people realize how deceptive that site is the better. Starve them
If you use the link at the top left it opens a window where you can see the names. If you use the link which is much more prominent under the DrudgeReport banner where you vote... the names are hidden on the results page.
I never go to Dredge any more since he went full libtard.........NEVER GO FULL LIBTARD....................
I, like others, rarely visit Drudge anymore. I just did to see what you were talking about RE the poll.
I was horrified.
I know Drudge has been veering left over the last few years, but what I saw blew me away. I thought I’d visited Democrat Underground. Drudge’s site is now so viciously anti-Trump, it is truly horrifying.
Yep pretty weird. I haven’t been to drudge in years.
I just now checked and I still see NO NAMES. Others have also noticed that as well.
I just went to the poll. On the voting side, the names are there with Harris’s name on top. On the results side, the names are removed with Pence’s results on top.
Yep. Saw that this morning. I felt dirty even going over there to see what I’d find—and then only the worse after I found what I found.
Drudge is still in mourning that the unrequited love of his life, Tom Brady, has moved to Tampa Bay without so much as a fare-thee-well. Sad.
Ah! That explains the discrepancy. And since the link under the Drudge Banner is much more prominent, it is still DECEPTION.
More evidence that the purpose of these polls is to influence the public, not to inform them.
