Neon, it may just work off of IPs instead of cookies, and the counters don't have to be updated every single second for it to be a valid poll of internet users who happen to vote at that site.

Will you relax? It's just a web poll, it's not like it means anything either way. |

IP logs are better than cookies and if what you say is true then no poll is truly accurate. I don't know why you'd mention cookies when they could just be deleted. Don't be so uptight all the time, you're gonna give yourself a stroke if you take every little anti-Bush post so serious. |

Just expressing I think the poll is unaccurate... It's much better to have people have to create an account to vote on a poll. Wich properly done would minumise poll cheating... |

I don't think it's any big secret that Bush isn't very popular anywhere outside of the USA anyway.
Since when has that become a suprise to anyone?
If any of you guys cared you might ask why that is - but mostly I don't think you do care, so I doubt very many of you will ask.
