It's not letting me vote.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

- Thomas Jefferson

Dang!  I got it in an e-mail, must be something embedded in the link, all I did was click on it, they didn't give a code.

I deleted the Townhall e-mail so I don't have that anymore, but I just checked that account and another one came in from Hot Air, so if you are signed up there you should be getting the link e-mailed to the e-mail address you used for them, so check that and see if you can vote.

I find the first place votes SHOCKING!

1st place votes
Newt Gingrich: 36.5%
Mitt Romney: 18.8%
Ron Paul: 17.7%
Michele Bachmann: 17.4%
Rick Perry: 9.5%
Townhall.com/HotAir.com readers were also asked for their 2nd choice. Michele Bachmann was the favorite second choice.
2nd place votes:
Michele Bachmann: 25.4%
Newt Gingrich: 20.6%
Mitt Romney: 20.4%
Rick Perry: 18.2%
Ron Paul: 15.4%

Either people are nuts and having fun gaming these votes or this nation is in some deep sh*t!

I'm surprised Rick Perry had as high a vote tally as he did after calling it the "Hot Gas" poll.

Seems odd Michele placed fourth in the first round
then placed first in the second round.

When I read what's going on on the ground, ie. Bachmann,
Perry, and Santorum and how supposedly so many evangelicals
populate Iowa (compared to NY?) and the media's personal desire,
there is great potential for a total upset at the polls.

I think there is a potential for some upset, if that actually transpires or not...? ? ?
