TAKE OUR PRESIDENTIAL POLL

By Michael J.W. Stickings

We've put up a new presidential poll (from Newsvine), and I encourage you all to take it.

It's over on the right sidebar, near the top of the page (main or post) -- you can't miss it. Just select your preferred candidate from the drop-down box, Democrat or Republican, as you will, it's your call, along with your home state (or international). And that's it. Done. Your vote will be recorded -- anonymously, of course, unless the NSA is paying attention -- and added to the total.

There are some odd choices -- who supports non-candidate George Pataki, for example? -- but it does allow you to register your support for Al Gore or Chuck Hagel. But go ahead and support one of the major candidates, if you prefer, or whomever you like best.

I'll put up some reminders now and then, but, for now, just do it.
