[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 73945, member: 1356"] Wily, it was ballot stuffing as I said (the un-American was joke reference to over's comment earlier). It is easily done by anyone with just a tad of computer knowledge due to the naive security parameters the poll system here uses. First, it lets non-registered people vote which by itself devalues any accuracy to a poll here. Second, it uses a simple cookie to decide whether you have voted or not which is easily removed. I confirmed this after reading your request to Cheryl by logging off, deleting the site specific cookie involved and revoting four times in a row. More sophisticated internet polls use IP address as one of the recognition ways to prevent ballot stuffing. So I guess we have one dedicated, moral-free, unAmerican who dislikes suzie on this forum. I believe tie noticed this almost immediately after the ballot stuffing results. Ummmm, good catch, very alert tie. [/QUOTE]
