My Hillary Poll - Encouraging Results

I have a very unscientific poll going on at my Who is Hillary Clinton? page on Squidoo. The page is meant to be informative, presenting facts about Hillary and the campaign, some resources pro-Hillary, some anti-Hillary. It's meant to help people gather information in order to make an informed decision prior to heading off to the voting booth to cast their ballots, not to try to sway people in either direction.

Judging by the variety of comments in the two feedback sections on the page, its visitors run the gamut from staunch Clinton supporters to those who are quick to remind us of Bill Clinton's impeachment proceedings and Hillary's Rose Law firm fiasco. So, even though it's unscientific and its number of visitors is in the hundreds and not the thousands, I have to think that the poll results come very close to mirroring the opinion of the population as a whole.

Thus, I am encouraged by the fact that the score has stayed in the vicinity of 45% yes, 55% no in response to the question, "If Hillary Clinton receives the nomination, will you vote for her?" We'll see in time how that compares with the real-life results.
