What is the purpose of Freeping a poll - to bend the truth of public opinion, a protest...what???

If the opinion of the people isn't in line with conservative values - try to change the opinion, not the poll. Artificially changing poll results only diminishes the limited value they already have.

Why do you attack OUR votes as artificial? Do we not have a right to vote as well, or is that priviledge reserved for liberals?

Polls have become mainstream at the cost of reality. IMHO, freeping a poll establishes a presence more than an opinion. You can't bend the truth of a polling question that's based on false pretenses, but what has become a pasttime here at FR is to let the poll takers & poll readers know we're watching by doing a "freep".

The only poll that matters is on a Tuesday in the season between foul weather and worse weather. <|:-)~~
