Well, either they don't run their polls long, or it wasn't going the way they hoped, so they turned it off!! The final results weren't in favor of the antis. ;D

Here's where the numbers fell when I voted at 1:10pm EST......not good for the anti's.

Do you believe gun-control laws are an effective way to curb violence?

I like their weasel words under the results. Wonder if it would have had the same wording if the majority had voted yes?

C-Span's polls run one day, and they don't have an archive to see the results as CNN does. :-\

I voted last night.

Tim, that's probably so they can skew the numbers to whatever they want them to be. ;)
