I’m still voting for Luke Skywalker…

pssst… If you vote “Other,” you’re supposed to type the alternative answer in the text box. I will dutifully produce a running tally of such suggestions here in the
Comments sectionbody of the post.14 Oct 2008 Tue at 9:24 am
um…i don’t see the text box. am i blind?
pann sez: It’s the long stripe under “Other” extending from the Isthmus of Panama across the Atlantic to the Horn of Africa, but it doesn’t matter because I’d have to reset the poll in order for you to vote again. It’s poor graphic design on polldaddy’s part.

just call me milton.
pnnsz: Now I’m confused. Milton? By the way, is your mother’s mother CandyGram?

#5 is an allusion to #4’s comment of ‘am i blind?’
john milton…english guy…wrote paradise lost…was blind.
pnnsz: Oh him. With your Marx Brothers reference elsewhere, I was thinking Milton Berle. Lots of other blind people to choose from.

I voted this morning here in Vancouver, BC. The polling stations are very empty at 8:30 a.m.
pnnsz: Next thing you’ll tell me that Thanksgiving is in October.

I voted OTHER too – but failed to type in SLOBS. Which is my pick too.
Viva les SLOBS!
PS: Missing you Pans of Steel. I am still full of crap (not that I wasn’t always) – but now I just mean I am still feeling CRAPPY.
pnnsz: It’s okay, I already included yours in the tally. Sorry to hear that you’re still ailing. Maybe I will get my act together and soon send the things I have planned.

Oooh goody! Make sure to include a bottle of snake oil – I mean cure-oil – I mean cure-all.
You know that really just means wine, right?

Update. It seems as if the poll as topped out at a whopping 7 votes. S.L.O.B.S. and S.P.E.C.T.R.E. are currently tied for the lead at two apiece.
p.s. Have you noticed that wordpress now has an “add poll” button right in the editing box?
16 Oct 2008 Thu at 12:53 pm
S.L.O.B.S. Hands Down!!!!

I agree with Tony…thanks Tony.

It said “Thank you we have already counted your vote”
I guess it’s one vote per-person per-poll per-election per-haps
23 Oct 2008 Thu at 11:03 am
Yes. I think it goes by IP address. So far the winner is “Other” (unelaborated) with 3 votes.
29 Oct 2008 Wed at 12:10 pm
Polls are now closed. The winner is, frustratingly, Other: (not specified) with a total of 3 votes. The other 8 broke down as a four-way tie of 2 votes apiece for S.L.O.B.S., Luke Skywalker, S.P.E.C.T.R.E., and K.A.O.S.
I can’t tell you how disappointed I am in this poll. Almost as disappointed as I am in the Electioneering poll, which I realize in retrospect was deigned poorly.
