I'll Vote My Way, Thanks!

I will not be dismissed as a dunce,
lumped together by Gallup or Luntz.
I will get out and vote
without need to emote
and defy every pollster for once.

    Good for you, Gerard. My third eye and I just stay home. Does no good to vote in a state like Utah (well, unless you are a dyed in the wool republican). I loved your comment on my mysticism. My number is 7 in numerlogy and it says kind of what you told me! Anyway, your limerick here has great meter and is funny. You did it just right. Congratulations!

    I wish more pollsters would have been defied recently, Gerard! Good for you, for voting. I rarely do it in Utah. It's hard to get up the desire in a state where everyone can guess the outcome!

    The polls can be manipulated and I have no faith in them. Candidates hire companies like Gallup to take these polls. How can the results be objective? Great entry for the election humor contest, Gerard. Good luck! Diane
