On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton is getting close to the bottom in terms of votes, and there for could get eliminated this week.

Daron,

If you're going to do it. Do it. But don't advertise it here on this public message board.

It's ok THIS TIME, because the site says it is ok to vote multiple times. That it is just for fun. But PLEASE do not do this on real polls. We have fought long and hard to get our results acknowledged and then here you come saying you cheat. It is NOT helpful and NOT wanted!!! I would have sent this to you in a Private Message, but it appears that you have that disabled.

I tried that macro you listed...it kinda sucks compared to just clicking on the vote button 20-30 times each reload.

Though after a while my fingers start to hurt

Please do not post about dishonest campaign tactics. Thanks.

yeah also the guy who started this thread has... 1 post. SO... maybe he works for the site and wanted some ad moolah.

No, I don't work for the site. I'm genuine. I'm new to RPFever, and voted in the poll, and was getting depressed as RP was way-last, and I saw his numbers were dropping from high-5% to low-5%, with it taking several votes to move up a meagre 0.01%. This is the first time that I've experienced the power of the RonPaul movement, and... Wow!! I'm amazed at what The Force can do! Alone, I am a drop of water, together, we are a tsunami!!

Thanks, guys, for showing that we *can* make a difference.

I was joking, just to be clear. Welcome aboard!

45%...we took care of that one

There's a vote over at http://www.1190kex.com/pages/pages/straw_poll.php and it's not going well at all for Dr Paul. In fact, it's going very badly.

It's not your regular online, 1 day poll. It runs for 8 weeks, with one candidate being eliminated each week. It's round 4, and Dr. Paul is in 5th place, looking like he will be eliminated in this round.

The tragedy of him being eliminated at this point is that he will miss up to four weeks of FREE radio airtime, being discussed with the other top tier candidates. That air-time is very valuable, so it would be very unfortunate if he were to miss out.

I don't know what their game is, but there's two "Vote again" buttons on the page, allowing multiple votes. A refresh does the same.

One (or several) supporters of other candidates have obviously automated the process, and have been absolutely hammering the vote. At this point, I suspect there are so many votes cast that each vote either barely registers, or may only bump the vote by 0.01%. By the end of this week, it looks like there'll be more votes in that poll than there are voters in the US!

Right now, they seem to have ganged up on Dr. Paul. His support is actually going BACKWARDS.

Dr. Paul needs help! Ordinarily, a small radio straw poll wouldn't matter much, but there are tangible rewards if he keeps in this run-off. Remember that $430,000 that was raised for radio airtime recently? That's the sort of dollars that this poll could be worth to the campaign. Well, a good chunk thereof. Please hop over there and help out.

NO! After i voted he was way ahead in 1st place with over 45% of the votes! We must be doing something right now.

As long as you are having fun and working for the rEVOLution, it doesn't matter how. What frustrates me are the holier than thou people who think this should be a business as usual campaign.

I beg to differ, Daron. It most certainly DOES matter how.

They wouldn't have 1/10th the media attention if we ran this business as usual.

And we probably would have had 1/10th of the negative press, if a few of you wouldn't pull this crap.

 

[Corydoras]

I think the percentage is slipping, folks...!

FYI, if you're still following this game...

The Fred Heads seemed to have figured out how to work the poll. His numbers have been inreasing rapidly over the past hour. Interestingly, Tancredo's numbers are slowly rising as well, while Paul's are on a slow decline.

Spamming refers to using different unethical tactics to achieve high search engine rankings.

the site requests voters to vote again. Lets get this straight its not spam. Its called "look at all my ads over and over again, thanks."


on that note.. pushing tan above rudy is a good idea.

 

[aksmith]

It seems to go down a hundredth every couple of times I vote. This may be the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

 

[LibertyEagle]

That's because there are more votes going on for someone else.

We're going to have to deal with this again, either tonight or tomorrow morning. There are a lot of votes going on tonight for the other candidates. It wouldn't surprise me if we're no longer in the lead by tomorrow morning.

Ok guys can we get off the internet thing? The guy that started this has 3 votes! Do you think he is an rp supporter? I would emagine he is trying to see how far away from what we are supposed to be doing we really are. The internet is ours! there is no denying that. Who gives a rats ass about an online poll? Lets get out there and fight this battle where our forefathers would have been fighting, on the streets! PASS THOSE SLIMJIMS OUT!!!!!!!

At the moment, Fred's numbers are going up far faster than anyone else's (and he's the closest to Ron's numbers).

Over the past 15 minutes, Fred has gained an average of 0.04 points per minute on Ron -- a combination of Fred's total increasing by 0.03 points, and Ron's decreasing by 0.01 points. This works out to be 0.1 points on average every 15 minutes, or 1 percentage point in 150 minutes. As of about 10:55, I calculated that it would take just over 29 hours for Fred to meet Ron's numbers, at approximately 32% each.

Of course, a lot could change in 29 hours.
