"Seven Republican presidential candidates took to the stage for a debate Saturday night in New Hampshire. Who do you think won?" Time magazine asked its readers.

Trump took a resounding 65 percent of the more than 50,000 votes cast by late Sunday morning in the unscientific poll.

Chris Christie and Marco Rubio, who engaged in a memorable exchange during the debate, are tied for second in the poll with 8 percent support apiece...

Online polls..... mmmmmm, no one would cheat on those, would they?

When algore first invented the internet, there may have been some naïve enough to not know about ‘online pools’.

Online Pools won’t help DONEald now.

Like Ron Paul supporters, Trump supporters are fanatically loyal to their god, Donald Trump, so they participate in online polls much more extensively than non-Trumpites. Supporters of other candidates are much more likely not going to bother with them because they know they are meaningless.

So you’re disappointed you couldn’t vote more than once for Cruz in the poll?

I don’t vote in any online polls because I know they are not a very good reflection of reality. Not say there isn’t some validity in some online polls, but most of the results are very distorted.

Have no problem agreeing that Trump has quite a lead in NH, but the voting on Tuesday will show a significantly lower percentage voting for Trump. Trump can sure get people to a rally, but can he get the to the polls to vote?

But so many comments about why no one should believe this or that, or a certain poll is full of it, or a certain media outlet is anti or for x candidate is all crap. Everybody would like their candidate to “win” (relative term) the debate, lead in the polls, have awesome stuff written about them, look great in the pictures, etc., etc. All other candidates would love to have the crowds, poll numbers and media coverage that Trump does.

That being said, Cruz is in the delegate lead and has won the only actual vote thus far, so your point is well taken.

So stealing the election is only a problem if the candidate that had it stolen had a “chance”?
