Did Fox News remove and hide their debate polls because Ron Paul was leading them?

Now at the end of the debate they told everyone to go to their website and vote on who you thought won the debate. The poll was active for about an hour and a half and Ron Paul was leading it by atleast 3000+ votes. Now the poll is gone with no mention of why. Now I ask why would you create a poll to only have it active for an hour an 30 minutes and then remove it without even showing the results?

The last debate was hosted by CNN and if you remember both polls on both the CNN and Fox News websites resulted in Ron Paul on top. Those polls were left on both websites into the morning where both morning shows told the exact opposite. Some even going on to say that Paul had 0%! This was obviously a contradiction to their own websites showing him on top.

So I have to ask now where is the poll? Where is the results of the poll?

EDIT:

It seems the orignal poll was infact removed from the website while another was hidden by taking it off the front page less than 2 hours after they told everyone to go vote. There was an actual link to vote which no longer exists. The question remains why would you take the poll down and then not list the other on your front page less than 2 hours after the debate? You just told everyone to go vote on it! The poll that has been found is not the same poll because the original poll was on Topix and it had a map (link below). Something is definitely odd here...

I wish you were exaggerating...

Ugh, why cant we just have a fair damn election? Watching those news people lie is creepy as hell...

This is the reason that Bilderberg/Council on Foreign Relations posterboy, Rick Perry, is being brought in. To take away as much of the Paul support as possible.
But, yes, the right and left sides of the MSM HATE R.Paul.
He doesn't fit the narrative that drives their ratings/readership/website hits and he is opposed to everything the owners of the MSM outlets stand for.
They ignore the fact that he predicted everything that is happening now.

It'll be harder this time than in 08, but people tend to get distracted and influenced pretty easily. He's got my support.

Whenever any channel talks polls I just shut them off. Polls don't mean anything because even if they didn't 'edit' the polls to push their own agendas, they would still find some way to play the blame game without really analyzing it or trying to comprehend, what the people want.

It's back:

Poll on Fox

The poll is still there: Who won the GOP debate?


Ron Paul by 44% when I checked, although when I first took the poll he was at 60% and Newt at 13%

ALL of MSM ignores Dr.Ron Paul! He will get my vote, yet once again nonetheless!

Edited Original Post.

Ron Paul
61.88% (3,238 votes)

Newt Gingrich
12.33% (645 votes)

Mitt Romney
9.21% (482 votes)

Herman Cain
6.75% (353 votes)

Michele Bachmann
4.85% (254 votes)

Rick Santorum
2.29% (120 votes)

Jon Huntsman
1.36% (71 votes)

Tim Pawlenty
1.34% (70 votes)

We all know Fox News would use the results from a poll like that if they were in favor of the candidate they like. But the subtlety of the results and the fact that they've been censored says a lot on its own.

This is hardly a conspiracy. Fox News claims to be conservative yet they are always aggressively trying to smear the most genuine conservative candidate...

America speaks and TPTB do not like what they see. No wonder they are building FEMA camps, not that it would ever help them.

They probably removed it because he was winning. You can tell everyone in the MSM hates him. He needs to win the Iowa straw poll tomorrow. The media won't be able to keep him hidden after that.

I loved how he exposed the propaganda against Iran tonight.

Anyone else hate Santorum? He sounds like such a ^!(#. You can tell he's mad that no one supports him.

He was winning the oh so supposedly religious south too.

And did anyone notice, by chance, that ExxonMobile sponsored the debate?

I've had it open and have been refreshing the results to see the most current numbers,
I didn't know that it was ever down but Ron Paul clearly carried it with these results:

6,058 Active Cities
21,549 Total Votes

National Vote
Paul 9049
Gingrich 4829
Cain 2494
Romney 1902
Bachmann 1863
Santorum 849
Huntsman 307
Pawlenty 256

I am no Nostradamus, but if Ron Paul gets dissed again...the London riots will look like a food fight compared to what is going to happen!

It was creepy- when they'd give Dr. Paul a question and he'd get surprise- a lot of applause- they had this look that would pass between them. It was ....catty...and creepy.

If someone has video, look at where the woman asked Dr.Paul the question towards the first part of the debate- might have been his first question, maybe 2nd. (I missed first few minutes of it)....ok, right after, there's a look that she and the guy sitting beside her pass to each other.

It's UGLY.

What I find funny is that the under-dogs (Paul, Newt and Cain) are beating the puppet candidates that the GOP will put into the election!

What a sad state of affairs.

Seriously, after he exposed the propaganda against Iran, I got very scared that TPTB will try to assassinate him.
And yes if that happens, they will rue the day.
