Please vote at the following TWO links.

Only one vote per IP address is allowed (the previous poll allowed more than one vote per IP address).

The first poll is by request, NOT including write-in options:

Poll #1: NOT Including Write-In Options

The second poll is the original poll, which INCLUDES write-in options:

Poll #2: INCLUDING Write-In Options

Please do vote in both polls, so we can get an idea of how things change without write-ins.

Thank you.

The results will definitely be skewed towards FReeper thoughts.

But I don't know of any way to get the word out to the general public that would target only Republicans (or people who can and/or intend to vote in primaries/caucuses). If it goes too public, then Democrats will vote on the poll, and then it's completely useless information.

But if anyone has ideas on how to get it out to general Republicans primary/caucus voters, not just FReepers, let me know.

Not many more votes since the last update. This thread has fallen out of the top, so it’s not getting many views.

Gingrich 32%
Cain 22%

“I would write someone else in” 6%
Undecided 5%
Romney 3%

Not going to vote 1%

When the option of a few specific write-ins are included, the current vote, out of 318 votes:

FWIW; I voted just now, as I did yesterday. Newt is in the lead with 30%, and Ron Paul is tied with Herman Cain at 20% each. Everyone else has a lower percentage.

Normally, I wouldn't care to vote twice, but since you seem to think this is foolproof, I thought I should give it a try.

You're welcome.

Personally, I don’t think any FReeper would vote more than once. It’s not our nature to lie.

Thanks for the info.

I didn’t say anything about the poll being foolproof. Quite the opposite in fact. How you got that out of anything I wrote is beyond me.

There are lots of flaws in the poll, that being just one of many that I won’t bother to point out.

My first post said this:

I'm sure this poll can be compromised by being slammed by Liberals... so take the results with a pound of salt, just like all polls.

I didn't even say a GRAIN of salt, I said a POUND of salt.
