Keep voting, you can do it as many times as you want. You'll see the numbers surge in a bit. I'll keep going until we have a number over 60%.

This poll is easily manipulated by pressing the vote button multiple times as fast as you can. It seems whoever is spamming Fred Thompson knows this tactic all too well.

The poll can also be manipulated with Imacros. You set the program to do a certain pattern of clicks. My browser is voting 2000 times for me.

Actually, I suppose the irony of us losing a poll where spamming was encouraged could be evidence that we really aren't spammers.

My iMacro thing is weird though. I go through and record a vote for Ron, hit vote again, then save it, then play it, but it gives Fred a vote when I play it.

Be careful out there.

Can some web guru confirm that this actually works? Can a "Vote" actually get transmitted with each button-click before the results are displayed, or are subsequent clicks redundant, and only one vote actually goes through?

I can tap my hand VERY fast, and I've been hitting enter on the vote button to vote multiple times. I tried it on the democratic vote and got Bill Richardson from 51% to 63% in no time (but they have less votes).

Although, I'm having second thoughts about that catch phrase. It's what McCain used when registering to be on the ballot in NH.

No, because it clearly says...


The KEX Presidential Straw Poll is unscientific, unofficial and designed for entertainment purposes. Vote as often as you’d like for any candidate and HAVE FUN!

Just askin'.

ValidusCustodiae
11-13-2007, 07:25 AM
What's happening is someone is using a bot to boost Fred's #'s. Then no matter how many times we click, while we're taking a break the bot is still clicking. By the way, Dr. Paul is losing again, and I've clicked hundreds of times already, can we get some help here? I think this is important to win. (yes i know fake poll, but publicity comes with winning, so why not WIN!?!?!)

I hit this thing with about 14,000 votes and it stopped budging like last week. I think it's just token now, won't go anywhere. Either they're filtering votes from 1 IP, or the vote totals are so high now that it would take a server-crashing load of non-stop voting to adjust the total, or they just disabled it and left it the way it is.
