Let me elaborate on why I made my snide comment. It just seems to me that your poll is a bit pointless. Do you believe that the Empeg BBS somehow represents the perfect sample of US voters and can somehow magically predict this election's outcome? I just don't think your poll will accomplish much, so why post it? Can't wait a day?

I know that this is a classic image that was floating around the internet, but I could not resist posting it here. Do not try to figure out who I am voting for by this image - I am still working on it...

This board has intelligent people and I'm curious who they think will win. What's the big deal? This is the off topic board of a small BBS. I didn't know I was supposed to be accomplishing some larger goal.

Yeah, lighten up on Dylan. So what if it's pointless? One could say that 85% of OT posts are pointless (perhaps 98% of _my_ posts are). Besides, everyone knows Kodos is going to win. -Zeke

Hell, people (particularly newspapers in the UK) are predicting the result based upon the result of the Washington Redskins games, the prevalence of miniskirts, and a whole bunch of other things.
Why wouldn't a poll on this BBS be any less worthy?

The prevalence of miniskirts is its own reward.

Actually, the same criteria are used here to predict the stock market...

This is a great page. Apparently the US needs more young urban poor black Jewish female postgrads with no guns who've lost their jobs.

Which reminds me of this dialog from "Next Stop, Greenwich Village" (Bernstein is black):
Mom : Who are you? Bernstein : I'm Bernstein. Mom : You're Jewish? Bernstein : No, Darling. I'm Gay. Mom : I don't care how you feel. You're a great dancer.
