Hey guys, I apologize for the delay in this week’s poll results, but I’ve been busy moving stuff into my new apartment and calling people to get internet.
Anyways, I’m getting rather disappointed in these polls. I mean, I expected pretty high results from last week’s poll, but it barely broke the 100 mark (107).
As for the results, I was wrong in predicting that the PS3 would come in second. What I didn’t expect was how very few people voted for it as their favorite seventh generation console. In fact, Sangent contributor Mitchell was very close.
In this week’s poll, I’m gonna steer away from the video games scene (I’ll come back to it next week) and arrive at politics. I wanna know who your favorite is for the 2008 US presidential election between the two major contenders Barack Obama and John McCain.
As always, if you have a question for Sangent users, post it in the comments, and I’ll post it next week.

Damn, that was close! Within 4% across the board!
My prediction this time around:
Barack Obama ~ Approx. 40%
John McCain ~ Approx. 20%
I Don’t Care ~ Approx. 30%
Neither ~ Approx. 10%

I find it odd that several hundred play the games, while only a hundred vote on the daily poll.

yeah me, too. they prolly just don’t wanna vote

you should make it come up like everytime someone wants to play a game or something ><

that would get more votes, but people come here to watch videos and play games, not take polls. i just wanna make your experience as pleasant as possible

hmm good point: but you could also make the poll easier to reach… like put it at the top of the screen… not somewhere in the middle

Or possibly make a link right above/below a game or something. Most of the time people dont participate in things is because they dont know about it.

No, most people dont want to participate as it either
1> doesnt apply to them
2> they dont care
Like in this wweks poll i put neither coz i dont (no offense) want a black guy as president, but i also dont want a trigger happy idiot as president. What happened to Hilary Clinton?
At least she would legalise the sale of dildos to 12 yr olds.

lol Clinton dropped out about like a month ago or something >.<
