For the third time, why did you have the previous poll closed?
If you read the intro of this poll, you will see why.
I completely cancelled the results of the previous poll (7/7-7/8) and removed them from my graphs because you said the vote was somehow tainted even though I dont believe it was. I did WHAT YOU WANTED.
Can we just move this thread to the State of Florida board on here...seems like a good fit with all of the issues around this vote, they must still have a thread on the recount over there.

I didn't do anything wrong. I have explained myself thousands of times and they are still CONFUSED!!! JESUS!!!

I cant win with you people.
Are you going to cancel the results for this poll too, because it is a lot more tained than that one. You actually closed a poll early where Obama was leading by a margin of 2 to 1, and opened this one where they are now tied.
Or are you not going to to cancel this one because your guy may win with these tainted results? Maybe only polls where Obama leads (like the 7/7 and 7/8 one, and the earlier 7/9 and 7/10 one) are tainted enough in your book to close.

It looks like you guys have to go through all that trouble again of logging into your second and third accounts again to cast votes.
This one will not be cancelled because it is not tainted, and anyone who wants to can vote again.
NOTICE: There are no results being released from the last poll due to concern by some users over one vote that was cast after midnight for Obama. I did not count it in my original math because the vote was cast after the poll deadline. Due to the expressed concern, the results from the last poll will not be tracked. Just so it is known, the last poll had 115 votes cast; 45% for Obama (D) and 42% for McCain; a lead of 3% for Obama at midnight PST yesterday.
This poll will close around MIDNIGHT on July 10th/July 11th with the new poll and results up on July 11th.
INFORMATION BELOW BASED UPON RESULTS FROM POLL 7/5-7/6, NOT THE MOST RECENT POLL.
The polling cycle from July 5th and July 6th showed Obama (D) with a significant lead over McCain (R). Obama had 49% of the vote while McCain had 38%. Obama had a 11% lead. Bob Barr (L) captured 11% of the vote, up from 10% last time. Other had 2% of the vote.
Only 55 votes were cast in this poll. The results are probably somewhat incorrect because of the lack of voters and because the regular users of CityData did not vote in this poll.
McCain has not lead in our poll since the poll from 6/20-6/25. This is Obama's biggest lead by far.

I think the whole process of these polls is now tainted, I myself probably wont vote in any more of them, Im sure I am not the only one.
If you don't agree with the way the poll is run, you don't have to partake. Don't vote, don't read and don't comment.
