I wonder why it keeps showing me as being in the chat rom when I'm not anymore?

oh well... g'nite all.

I can't wait til tomorrow to wake up and see how the election is going... so close!

The chat isn't the smartest thing, so it still thinks you're in there for quite a while. Kind of how it changes the color of your text at random, along with freezing up sometimes without telling you.

What a turnout!

90 votes and counting, AND, it's a dead tie! Lol! This is one for the history books.

[Harovan]

Looks a bit like the last US election, doesn't it? So don't let Timeline count the ballots, he's from Florida, you know!

I think people are purposely voting to keep it close, ya know. If Ninot gets out by a couple, some people will atomatically vote for Trip, and vice-versa. Thats my theory anyway. Either that or they are just such evenly matched candidates and so overwhelmingly qualified for the job, that there votes are dead even... naw, forget that, I thinks its people purposely keeping it even.

I just voted for Trip and pit the election at 47 against 47, both canditates are equal and with a grand total of 94 voters, thats actually a good turnout. I voted Trip because he has done a good job and therefore deserves a vote.

Oh no!! Looks like we've been set up once again by the Banana Republicans!

Don't blame me, I voted Ninot... -I think...

*Sigh* If this election ties....our government will collapse.

Wow! First time I've looked recently and it wasn't a tie.
Ninot 48 Trip 47.
What time does this poll close?

*Timeline scoops all the ballots up into his arms and begins running wildy in circles and slips on a Banana peel. Ballots and chads fly everywhere, Oh No!*

/me stuns Timeline into a foetal position with his stun gun, then returns ballots to proper place.

Looks like the DIA is making good use of the dead voters (aka DLs) 51 to 47 now.

Just a quick question. Having never posted a poll, how does it close? Does the poster do it, a mod, or is there a time limit set when you start the thread so it's done automatically?

I only ask because the day the poll closes is stated, but not the time. In a race this close, that could be vital.

[MrWhereItsAt]

The poll closes automatically, and when it does there is a message above the results stating "This poll is closed".

[GodKing]

I voted without seeing who had what. Then it came in as the vote that tied it up again (52-52). Oops. Good luck to each of you.

56 - 52 for Trip now.
