Last chance poll: Who gets your vote?

The bar-graphs that display the results of this poll are misleading. Total votes for each candidate by MEMBERS should be divided by the total number of MEMBER votes. As it is, non-members are inflating the percentage of votes against President Bush.

True, but most members should have no problems with it, especially since it is in graphical format.

I'm thinking of the immediate visual impression on visitors.

And I should have added, the number of NON-MEMBER votes for each candidate should be divided by the total number of NON-MEMBER votes.

That way, the results will be very clear.

That was a zot ping, not a ZOT ping.

Check the thread poster's handle - this was a fun ping, not an unleash-the-lightning ping.

I knew that, I was having fun by pretending to overlook the obvious.

I was once confused by an imaginary bar graph, but then I rotated it 90 degrees and it became a real bar graph.

If I have lunch in my office and don't close the door. Every idiot passing by stops and asks, "Are you eating?" I say, "Nope, I'm painting my toenails."

I loved those!
