Anybody besides me ever get fed up with opinion polls? This sort of tripe has all the significance of a poll as to whether we should change sunrise to the west...
Should "pi" equal 3.00000...?
Should we ignore the effects of friction? Of gravity?
Pardon me while I go urp.

Your cynicism is a little disheartening Art.
The fairest way to conduct an Election in the US, fairest that is until people can learn to count and mark crosses properly, is to make it the best of three. Spread over three months or so, so those with short attention spans don't get too bored.
You know it makes sense !

Would that be like a remedial election for people who didn't pass the first time. Like repeating second grade??
If we are going to change the rules, let's have the whole country vote again. With new candidates, since none of these got a majority of the popular vote.
Or we could do what the Constitution says: count the votes (twice if necessary) and accept the results. One person, one vote, one time.

Even a 're-vote' in the whole dam* country wouldn't be fair. In one county? Please.
This is the kind of egregious behavior that starts revolutions. I trust saner minds will prevail, and I doubt any of them are to be found at CNN.
