Claims "Paulites" flood voted to skew text poll, yet only one vote per phone number was allowed

Fox News and Sean Hannity tried to discredit Ron Paul last night after the latest debate by claiming the Texas Congressman's runaway success in the subsequent text messaging poll was due to "Paulites" flood voting, when in fact only one vote per phone number was allowed.

Ernest Raposa, a viewer in New Bedford, MA, decided to text in his support for Ron Paul and received a message back stating, "FOX News UVOTE: Thank you for voting! Watch Hannity & Colmes for the results."

"As the show progressed, it became obvious, as we have seen previously, that Ron Paul had the most support, hovering around 33 per cent," writes Raposa. "Around 11:25pm EST Hannity declared that though Ron Paul had DOUBLE the support of the tied for second place Giuliani and Huckabee it was clear that the "Paulites" were simply dialing in over and over again, devaluing his lead."

Aiming to test Hannity's theory, Raposa attempted to text in a second vote for Ron Paul from the same cellphone. He received a message back saying, "You have already voted on tonight's debate. Thank you for your participation."

Thank you December. Very interesting article. I am skeptically optimistic about Ron Paul.

That wasn't the only thing. Ron Paul and Mike Huckabee went at it in regards to Iraq, but Fox news claims that it was an "obvious win for Huckabee" according to some graph that measures viewer approval every second. Not so, in fact, because Fox news deliberately cut off Paul's last remark --last words-- where the audience makes a final cheer. They did this TWICE. The first time they were simply airing a recording of the highlight battle, while the second time they were showing the battle with a reaction graph overlapping it.

Hmmm, camera must have run out of film at that exact moment. Just a coincidence, nothing to worry about.

Proof: Fox News Censors Ron Paul

9/5/07

We posted an article just a few hours ago about the upcoming Republican presidential debate and we pondered whether or not Duncan Hunter would get more time to speak because of his win at the Texas straw poll. And a user posted a response asking why Duncan Hunter should be given more time when Ron Paul has won four straw polls.

The straw polls that Ron Paul has won is not at the same level as the Texas GOP straw poll. If I was to take an informal straw poll of my neighbourhood and found that we overwhelmingly supported Ron Paul, would that be comparable... No. The Texas Straw Poll just happens to be considered official. But statistically and scientifically they are all trash anyways because straw polls are just polls of whoever is willing to join.

I think people know that the debates are rigged. It should be blatantly obvious that every candidate should get equal amount of time, yet that's not the case.
