Hehehehe, this is what they say about the practice of "Freeping" over there:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Republic

"The influencing of online polls by Free Republic's members is a common practice. Known as "freeping" a poll, the practice is not unique to the Free Republic forums and is employed by many other activist websites of all political stripes. It involves posting a message thread directing members to vote en masse in an online poll and including a link to the poll, particularly those on television network or newspaper websites, with the intended goal of significantly affecting the final outcome. Cf. astroturfing."

with the intended goal of significantly affecting the final outcome

I see nothing inaccurate or demeaning in this statement.
