You can cycle back and forth between vote and results.

A small line of programing might vote no every second or something automaticaly.

vote no twice.

Food for thought here

Earlier the votes were approx 60/40 in favour
now, a few hours later, it's 61/39 against.
Probably because of traffic from this and other anti war sites.

This demonstrates the power of the internet to manipulate polls. As someone who works in the media, I've come to understand that reality is meaningless, it's perception that matters. Public opinion, or perceived public opinion,eventually forms public policy.

Not that public opinion seems to matter to the warmongers right now, the blood lust has taken over. However in the long term, these guys will sober up - so keep posting

It's your democratic right
