FOX Nation:Which Presidential candidate do you find the most truthful?

It was interesting how much I struggled to answer that question.

I was initially really suprised by the poll... Until I realized this is what happens when you only get 1 vote. The results would mean more to me if you could rank each candidate. I feel like Cruz/Rubio would have much better results and Trump/Clinton would run away with the "least truthful" votes.

I'm on my phone so perhaps I'm missing something; what is the map on that page supposed to represent?
 
I'm not on my phone and I have no idea, either.

Okay, I got on my PC and figured it out. Supposedly the poll is tracking what state each voter lives in, and color-codes each state with the candidate receiving the most votes. If you hover over a state it gives you the results. However, whatever means they're using to identify each voter's state appears to not be working.

I'd put Ben Carson in 2nd place. Too often wrong, but not particularly dishonest.

Maybe Rubio 3rd, but after Carson they are mostly lying sacks of shit.

The GOP's only response to Bernie is that he's a "socialist" and they understand technically, that is not the truth...so they (with FOX as their front man) will run a poll on who is the most truthful! Is it me.....or what??
 
I have come to the conclusion that over the years, and after constant abuse of the word, that "truth" does not mean what it used to mean.

How that poll could be so skewed ... with the most honest candidates being voted as the most dishonest and vice-versa is puzzling. Most of the voters must have misunderstood the question.

This is the true Clinton legacy. Telling lies is now completely acceptable. Truth does not really matter as long as there is an easier to accept, or a more socially agreeable reality.

I assume they use your IP address or the earliest router that's listed in the packet.

My Tor browser shunts all my posts through Switzerland, Somalia, the Vatican and N.Korea. I wonder how that shows up?

The hover doesn't work in Firefox, so I tried Edge. Works there.

I see that the states with the most voters are NY, CA and MD (in that order). All reliably blue states. So I imagine the poll will shift a lot as the others vote.

OTOH, those states don't add up to anything close to the reported total. Which is I guess what you meant when you said the state totals aren't working.
