9. I have seen poll questions "flipped" but not the numbers

There was one a while back..(got the screen cap somewhere).. NO was the first choice which struck me as odd, since usually the yes options are first.. anyway, people voted and voted and voted, and the numbers were 40K something for NO..and a few minutes later I looked in a,d YES was the first option now, but with the numbers that had been cast for NO.

They can be and are manipuated..and the freeps (some of them) brag about software that does an "autovote" hundreds of times, so I never bother anymore.

online votes are kind of meaningless anyway..
