Enblogment, bias
Larry Lessig and Dave Winer have the very clever idea of a polling site based on blog links and click-throughs:
[Lessig] wrote a passioned essay about the Presidential election of 2004, and he wanted to tell people who agreed with his choice to click on a link to express their support. And if they really supported what he was saying, they could write their own essay and link to the same page.
And then of course we’d seek out supporters of Bush and Nader to point to pages indicating support for their candidate.
I have one one word question: Badnarik? He’s on far more ballots than Nader.
