Do you have a further breakdown of the preferences (second, third preferences, etc.)

Oh and thanks for putting on the poll.

Well I have a break down of how many people second or third or fourth or fifth or sixth preferenced a candidate but that really wont show how the election would play out since I do not know how individual people voted. I'll probably add that now.

Very, very different from the public poll.

They usually are.

I wonder how many people suggested themselves for VP.

Do not know though I suspect a quite a few people did.

[Sam Spade]

Excellent poll I might add, Colin.

[Siege40]

6) Who do you think would be the best Vice Presidential pick for Supersoulty?

- Siege40, kill Peter's base. 

LMAO!

[Gabu]

Very interesting poll.  Thank you for doing it.   I see that I've finally managed to do something controversial.

By the way, am I the only one shocked that absolutely nobody listed PD as a possible Peter Bell running mate?

[WMS]

Presidential Poll- 44 people polled

6) Who do you think would be the best Vice Presidential pick for Supersoulty?

- WMS [7 votes]

Given that I was the one who (since I already knew the answer ), I'm happy to see I was somewhat of a popular choice!

[The Dowager Mod]

I don't think i answered that one

[Akno21]

6) Who do you think would be the best Vice Presidential pick for Supersoulty?

- Siege40, kill Peter's base. 

LMAO!

Not that you would accept, but if a center-rightist picks a left-winger, that is going to hurt the center-lefter if he doesn't pick a left-winger (Which Peter did, so it's a moot point)

[TomC]

I'm not that pleased with anyone's choice of veep. Not that they're bad people, they just seemed strange choices.

[WMS]

Based on that, WMS, it's very likely you were the person who reccomended Bandit as a running mate for Peter Bell. 

Nope. Actually, I think I recommended Seige...
