Default Gun Poll and Story

The Denver Post is running a poll. Go vote. There is also a story about the run on gun sales that is taking place.

Go to:
denverpost.com

The poll is halfway down the right side. The link to the story is just above the poll.

I did not post a direct link to the poll because I don't want TFF id'ed as the source of the votes.

More than likely they didn't get the result they were expecting or wanting...

They must change it every day, but it is still there. It is a small link above the poll for the day.

As of right now it is 73.97 to 23.11

As Marlin T said I think it was a one day poll, although if you searched for the home page for 11/6/8 you may still be able to vote.

Marlin T, I love the new sig. pic. It looks great.
