With over 5,300 votes, this is this the biggest poll by far in the list of
results of past Age polls, which goes back as far as December 2007. The first
poll listed is for "Is the Victorian Government right to cancel next year's
duck hunting season?", which only got 1120 votes. The Yes vote was 83%.
It will take 1000 votes to even this poll up.
Even though these polls are statistically meaningless, they are probably a good
indication of how organised each side is. Given the huge number of voters in
this one, both sides are fairly well organised.

Subject: Duck Shooting Poll
Dear Birders,
AS Chair of BASNA I received the following e-mail today. I voted and the site
then reported nearly 60% in FAVOUR OF DUCK SHOOTING. Please vote and get the
balance back the other way.
"The link below is a poll on duck shooting.
>From what we have been told, the shooters have contacted all their members to
>complete the poll!
Now, it is our turn.
So far the results are very much in the pro-hunting camp which we know is not
accurate of what the general public thinks.
Please pass this onto family and friends and vote to ban this barbaric activity.
http://www.theage.com.au/polls/national/form.html - vote no you don't agree
with duck shooting season
Please help us to get duck shooting banned."
Regards
Peter Marsh
