2. It's a stupid poll (as many CNN polls are) because
the people who bother to vote in the poll are the same people who bother to vote in the election. If you aren't going to vote in the election you probably aren't going to bother to vote in the poll, or admit you aren't going to vote. In fact, you probably aren't even seeing the poll, so it's absolutely not scientific in any way, shape or form.

4. With the way voter apathy has been in this country
that actually isn't a stupid question at all.

9. The higher the 'I Don't Plan to Vote"
I'm thinking, the better for us. I'm hoping the "I don't plan to voters" are disaffected RWers.

Of course this is a 'poll' in only the loosest sense of the word, is not random and is not scientific. It's just who decides to click on it
