Poll question: Iowans please check in -- DU Iowa Caucus-Time!!!
Edited on Thu Jan-03-08 02:00 PM by whereismyparty
How 'bout a DU Iowa caucus? Let's see how close the DU results get to the actual Iowa caucus!

THE RULES:
I need Iowans to participate in the poll and other DU'ers to please refrain from polling!!!

(Comments, recs and kicks, however, are welcome from all DU'ers!)

Let's see what happens! Wanna' play?

I will present the choices alphabetically. And please kick after voting to keep it up! Thanks.

1. How are you going to verify whoever votes is actually from Iowa?

2. We'll have to go on the honor system.
I wouldn't call it scientifically accurate though. It's really JFF (just for fun).

7. You can't poll Iowans....they have to go to their designated corners...
As silly as it sounds, your DU poll is a much more valuable process than the caucusing they do in Iowa.

12. I'm from Iowa
However, it's 4:30 p.m. here now -- a lot of the most loyal, most excited are in full-throttle caucus preparation mode. (A lot of the Iowa DU group are serving as temporary caucus chairs or as precinct captains for their chosen candidate and will be heading out well ahead of the time the doors officially open.)

16. You know why we call it the Iowa "caucus", right?
We tried calling it " The Iowa Larry" but it kept confusing all the farmers. Do you have any idea how many farmers are called Larry? A LOT.
