AOL is hosting an online straw poll for the entire country. Many of you have already seen this and voted, but for those millions who havent yet, go and vote!Â
 According to AOL, this straw poll is un-spam-able and un-hack-abl. People have tested this by voting, deleting the cookies in their browsers, and trying to vote again. While the site will allow you to vote multiple times in this manner, it in fact WILL NOT count any of these votes after your first one. The natural assumption would be that the site is tracking IP addresses, and I do think this is what they are doing, but Im not willing to make any empirical statments towards that end as I dont know for sure.
At the time of writing, the vote count stands as follows:
Â
 Republican votes: 178,067
Paul: 54,118 (30.39%)
Giuliani: 30,154 (16.93%)
Huckabee:Â 29,067 (16.32%)
McCain: 25,305 (14.21%)
Romney: 22,806 (12.81%)
Thompson: 14,786 (8.30%)
Hunter: 1,831 (1.03%)
Â
Dr.Paul was at nearly 34% only a few days ago. Help prove to the nation who is REALLY going to be our next president!Â

The Poll is fake like the rest of them. AOL will put who they wnat ahead. They know Ron Paul blows away polls online so they have to let him win for now.
