IBJ Poll

No ban. Terribly worded question.

Terribly worded is correct... Unfortunately, OUR newsroom does the same goofy stuff at times.

Ok. Let me post this more as a warning than a suggestion. Those online polls are ridiculously easy to "stack." That is, in a variation of Occam's Razor, often the easiest way for websites to track multiple visits is by using "cookies." For the best browsers (like FF), there are ways to control the cookies websites place on your system.

Without being too obscure, if you can manage the cookies, you can manage whether the website accurately tracks how often you visit.

Whichever way the "voting" comes out, the results should be suspect.

Looks like there are other like-minded folks voicing their opinion... Since I got back from lunch it's like 80/20 in favor on no ban.... Whoo hoo!

 

[Kmcinnes]

81% no as of 4:33 pm.....voted No!

I bet the headlines tomorrow read:

Semi automatics for the people? 81% of those polled say no.

 

[netsecurity]

82% no

This is so terribly worded, there is not a clear answer to me. The answer to the top one is yes, the answer to the paragraph would be no.

 

[CathyInBlue]

83% against ban / 17% for ban as of 5:50 P.M. It's well in our favour and creeping ever more so.

I didnt have problems understanding what was written. Probably because that's how I woudl have worded it.

I voted no

You can bet your ass that the majority of those who voted yes saw the 'AWB' and thought that all guns would disappear.
