1. "it's not showing any results yet"
From what I can see that's because it isn't working. Tried to vote 3 times and saw no results. Maybe they aren't getting the answer they want?

13. Try scrolling over. That's what I had to do to find the box to mark.

Wal-Mart calls for minimum wage hike

Ah, smell the hypocrisy.

But I can't find the poll (edit: because I didn't scroll down far enough, but I can't vote on it):shrug:

6. I don't think a DU rush of this poll is going to show very much
seeing as how Wal-Mart is the world's largest retailer.

9. Couldn't hurt
If just one person that shops there sees a large anti-Wal-Mart vote, maybe they'll reconsider.

11. Fortunately, the Philadelphia area has few of these stains
And many communities put up a big fight whenever they try to come in somewhere.

One came into an outlying county, and the local government ended up spending WAY more in increased policing compared to the revenues the Walmart brought in.

12. Done
I absolutely boycott that place and downgrade it at every opportunity in a conversation. There is a "super" store in my small town that has run out so many local businesses. I drive 40 miles to a larger town to get whatever, rather then contribute to their bottom line.
