You sound really silly with these types of conspiracies, you seriously believe

Comment on General Election 2010 Poll Results by David.

You sound really silly with these types of conspiracies, you seriously believe David Cameron even knows this poll exists and is so concerned at the BNP’s results he’s rallied the Tories to vote?

I see it now:

SKY News Reporter: Mr Cameron what exciting political things have you done today?

David Cameron: Well, I’ve had a very productive day, we’ve been working on our general election manifesto, but my second in command alerted me to a general election poll where the BNP are holding their own. Realising it’s importance to the election I obviously dropped what I was doing and phoned all my Tory homeys to vote Conservative in the poll. It was close, but we got there in the end.

ROFLOL

Your conspiracy theory is especially funny when we had one day where 300+ BNP supporters direct from the BNP website voted in one day (that was the day the BNP took the lead in the poll). Other than the Monster Raving Loony votes I don’t think another party has received over 100 votes in one day (I haven’t really been checking though).

It’s the BNP supporters who are trying to manipulate this poll (and a very, very popular forum who thought it would be funny to get their members to vote Monster Raving Loony Party one weekend, 900 votes).

I would bet every penny I own that the BNP will not gain 18%+ of the popular vote next year.

A few stats about the poll.

Polls been live 105 days.
Average number of votes per day 93.
Average BNP votes per day 19.
Average Conservative votes per day 22.

It’s not a lot of people considering the site as a whole sees about 2,000 visitors! Not all the visitors see this poll (I’d estimate about a 1/3rd go to this page), conclusion a lot of people just don’t care about political polls and the BNP supporters despite posting a link to this page all over the main BNP website (supposedly the most popular political site online) can only manage on average to get 19 BNP supporters to vote per day!

The forum who as a joke asked it’s members to vote Monster Raving Loony Party managed about 800 votes in one day. If the BNP are so widely supported now and the BNP website oh so popular, why with dozens of links to this page almost begging BNP supporters to vote BNP here can they only manage 19 votes per day?

Before you consider accusing me of deleting BNP votes or something, there’s not been a single accusation of deleting BNP votes. I had one BNP supporter almost daily posting the poll results on the BNP website, so he/she would have noticed if the BNP numbers went down.

I’m afraid the BNP are still a minor political party and will be doing well if they gain any MPs next year. Consider UKIP will be taking some of the BNP’s supporters next time, the BNP could do worse than in 2005 because of UKIP. There are two Euro skeptic parties now and UKIP are like the BNP perceived as a one policy party: BNP it’s immigration, UKIP it’s Europe.
