I think it's PPP but one of the pollsters has been asking a question that's more or less "If Hillary Clinton wins, do you think it will be because a) she got the most votes, or b) because the election was rigged?" so by doing it that way we can kind of get both sides: "Do you think the result of the election will a) reflect the will of most Americans, or b) reflect one candidate rigging the election?" something like that.

Squizzle posted:If we go with rigging as our contest thing—and I think that's weak, especially as Trump seems to be moving away from that rhetoric—we need two questions: Do you believe the election will be rigged? Should we allow international observers with experience in this sort of thing to monitor our election? So the edit-correction doesn't get lost in the page transition, I want to point out I meant "observers" and not "owners". It was 2 AM, in my defense.

Yoshifan823 posted:Agreed, though I still think "do you think this election will be rigged" or something like that ("tampered with"?) would be better than "reflecting the will of real americans". No, these people love things that are ever so slightly aloof.

I was worried one month was too long, but maybe it isn't. I think we'll hit it though.

Did we cross-post it in C-SPAM and GBS? Might be enough to put us over the top.

I had to pull out my because of a family emergency, sorry, but I'm sure we'll still make it!

I have no idea what it's like up there these days. If anyone wants to though, please do. Also, I did get a message from someone who wanted to crosspost it to their political blog. Maybe could be some help there as well.

I'll have to take a look at my bank account and see what I can donate. It's too nifty an idea to leave alone, I think.

I bumped the C-SPAM "polls polls polls polls" thread with a link to this thread. Don't make me bust out the matching gift promotion y'all, I'll do it! I'LL TOTE BAG THIS MOTHERFUCKER

6 days and $600 left. Any place we've not hit up for help?

Probably need to start a separate thread in C-SPAM

I'll try to throw in some cash when I get a chance within the next couple days.

Threw in a bit more money, to try to help us reach our goals. Also, if we do get funded, do we want to rethink Mississippi? I mean it was interesting when we thought Hillary might be close there, but it might be better to poll somewhere more relevant given how the landscape has changed?

Well, I put something up in GBS, maybe in between all the posts making GBS threads on this idea, someone will donate. http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3789767

Well, it looks like we're going to fall short. Did my best to promote it off the forums as well, though I haven't been active in this thread lately, but I've got an expedition coming up in a few weeks and have been busy as gently caress. Ah well. Goon projects, I guess. At least everyone will get their money back. e: on the off chance we make it in the next day, I may have to appoint someone else here to handle the actual business of it, as I'll be busy expeditioning and such, but we'll worry about that when/if it's necessary.

We came depressingly close y'all but heck, the userbase just isn't quite as large these days. I also pushed this with non-goons and such because I figured it would be entertaining. Great idea ReidRansom. Good luck on your trip!
