I know, I know it is AOL. But they make you sign in using your master screen name and log your IP. You can only vote once. It is straight forward. "Who do you plan to vote for?" It shows McCain at 63 and Obama at 37%
Now I don't know about you, but AOL is not exactly chalk full of a bunch of right wing conservatives. The author of the aritcle suggests it shoudl be looked into, as something crazy might be a brewing.
I only mention this as I read an article that suggest perhaps either something shady, or very fundamentally wrong might be happening with the major polling? Who conducts these polls, or actually collects the data? A bunch of liberal 18- to 20 somethings who support Obama! Could they have an alternative motivation to mes with the polls.
Democrats and Republicans, read the article in its entire length. It will make you wonder, that is for sure.
Note: the article is from a few weeks ago, but AOL's current polling that started yesterday shows the same 62-38 McCain lead, or Obama gaining 1 point. Very strange!
Im a Republican but even I have to say this AOL poll is from 9/14. Hello? its 10/22! Get some current data....
The straw poll I just participated in tonight shows the same lead, or close at 62-38! The article is from a few weeks ago, but the polling results are the same this week! that is what is so dang strange!

Great---so why dont you post the poll from tonight?
I was gonna say the same thing. Who uses AOL anymore?
Perhaps rural users who can't get internet any other way? Older users who have no need for things like downloading music or video? Anyway, it's a curious demographic to say the least (also, those poll numbers are 3 weeks old) --
