You can just buy poll votes the same way you can get fake Facebook friends and fake Twitter followers. You can also buy website traffic.

All of these things are subject to meddling by cyber bots. Here's a website that teaches you how to fool one type of poll:

They used to call this "freeping the polls." Here's an old discussion on it: http://www.airliners.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1093257

Explains the primary debates where he threw out insults on insult to his opponents. Absolutely no substance.


Rigged polls. Smh.

Thanks for bringing these shenanigans to our attention.

Not surprised whatsoever.

It's nothing. The polls come out this weekend is what matters. So it's much ado about nothing.

Nothing is beneath them.
Many on line polls require a login to Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, etc, some place cookies in your cache, or record the IP Address. To prevent being manipulated.

The Science is looking at the numbers.....

Who is beneath Who?
