It's so nice to have multiple polls so you can pick the one that pleases you, in this cas the scarier "horserace is still on" one. The small bit of consolation is they at least compared 2% to 7% for the same poll, rather than an average. </p> </div></div></div> Sat, 28 May 2016 05:15:01 +0000 PeraclesPlease comment 223679 at http://dagblog.com
