Helms Deep, it ain’t.
The struggle between the clicks overnight changed the results of the VOCM question of the day.
The VO computers have registered over 45,000 votes and the “No” side is back on top.
The Reform-based Conservative socks have evidently been busy, but not quite busy enough.
Don’t be surprised if they redouble their efforts after a night’s sleep, a case of Red Bull, a few hot pockets and some cold packs for their wrists. The Old Man would be mightily displeased if Gerry Phelan had to report a loss in so vital a test of political strength, especially during poll goosing month.
Updated: verb tense corrected and a set of related links added.
Edward R. Murrow Flashback Update: It’s like da blitz, b’ys. As of 1300 hours local on Sunday, the QOTD is showing about 46,500 votes and the numbers are still running heavily for the “Hates It” forces.
At this rate, the “Loves It” crowd will have to push the total vote to over 100,000 to get the 70/30 split they drove for on Saturday.
That would be an all-time vote record and could well crash the VOCM system for only the second time in the history of the idiocy.
