Worst. On-line. Poll. Ever (Gungeon interest only most likely).
http://www.ofccpac.org/modules.php?name=News&new_topic=11

Will John Kerry's abysmal voting record on guns influence your vote?

Yes - I only support those who support my rights.
No - I was fooled by his photo-op with a shotgun.

Yes - I only support those who support my rights. 94.55% (243)
No - I was fooled by his photo-op with a shotgun. 5.45% (14)

2. That's called a push-poll
It's only purpose is to push voters toward one candidate over another. Rethugs use push-polls and they always contain lies.

The campaign against John McCain in 2000 was in push-poll format. "Would you support John McCain if you knew that he had an illegitimate black child?"

Elizabeth Dole used them in her senatorial campaign in 2002 in NC. I complained to the state board of elections to no avail.

5. Good
Doubt they'll see a continuous surge in traffic. Wonder how many weeks it had been up previously?

9. This poll sucks
It needs a 3rd option

No - I know Dubya is going to screw gun-owners sooner than you can say "Pappy knows best."

11. Speaking of screwing
If you want to make a pile, buy KY (Johnson & Johnson) stock if by some miracle shrub wins. BOHICA goes a little easier with proper lubrication. May as well make a few bucks in the process.

12. Nah
That's assuming most people are going to see it coming. More than likely, by the time people notice, it'll already be too late. Just going to have to bend over and take it raw like a man.

I'm stocking up my ammo now as a CYA just in case bushie wins.

15. Great example of poisoning the well
Most online polls do the same thing but with more finesse.

16. No's up to 9%
I have to admit I laughed when I read the poll choices, but I voted no just to fuck with the bastards.

18. They do that intentionally...
A lot of their polls over the last few years are constructed like that. I think it's done for the sake of humor as much as anything, as well as to make a point to the members or guests visiting their website.

In other words, the polls are not really polls.

Try this one out:

http://www.ofccpac.org/modules.php?name=Surveys&pollID=27

The question was in response to a sheriff who released the street addresses of license holders in violation of the statute and then claimed a differing interpretation of the statute (i.e., county of residence = street address).

I still curious why was Lunabush visiting their site. ;)
