Thread: URGENT: tricky Chicago trib poll

Luis Guiterrez is using this poll to gain support for amnesty. Please take the poll and pass it on - if there is a question you don't understand or is unclear as to it's meaning, don't answer it - those are designed to be used as a benefit for their side, no matter how you answer it. Thanks!

Chicago isn't going to have an impartial survey. Why not survey Oklahoma City, too?

I SEE NO POLL!!!

I can not see a poll on the link.

I FOUND IT! (I think?)

I'm voting now.

Went to the link but couldn't find the poll. Could someone please direct me to the appropriate location? Thanks.

I saw the poll but after voting it goes to a dead link.

And what sort of question is this. How can you have an illegal invader here that hasn't broken the law?
