I did start a best Impreza list on ranker but got sidetracked, there are some odd Impreza/Subaru lists already on there.

2003 WRX V-Limited ftw btw.

Right, over the last 24 hours I've shared the page on as may Left-wing parties as a I could and there has been no change in the voting pattern, if anything votes for reactionary parties have gotten stronger.

All I can think at this time is that the pretty "insignificant" list only appeals to casual voters or that it's yet another good chance for a protest vote.

It's pretty neutral tbh.

At the end of the day polls on ranker.com usually see results like: best film = Godfather Sexiest woman of all time = Marilyn Monroe. Ranker usually reflects peoples opinions accurately.

Dave W is a god btw.

Crikey, some movement tonight.

Labour have stormed to #1 and the Conservatives are getting hammered, last place!

Ukip down to 12th and struggling and amazingly the very far-right Liberty GB holding at 9th.

I took a who should I vote for survey a while back and it listed the Green party as one of the choices.

I just need a Bye Bye STI sticker and my project is finished.

Another 1,000 votes over night kids, Cons still stuck at the bottom of the pile with 3 likes and 98 dislikes. Labour running away with it.

Sharing the link on the Cons page didn't get them 1 vote..

UKIP strikes back.

They were languishing about 30th this morning but have shot back up to 3rd. It's now a 3 horse race between Labour, Greens and UKIP - shít just got real!

I find it a bit strange the widely shared General Election list has received 4,027 votes and the Best Scoobynet member list amassed 5,900 votes.

An odd reflection of this site.

All I can tell you is that I bet the NHA wish they had more candidates.

Sat in 84th place you need to do a bit of campaigning yourself old boy.

Just coming up to 6500 votes.

Labour 1st
Green Party 2nd
UKIP 11th
Libs 61st
Cons 66th

Not how I saw it panning out. I thought UKIP/Cons 1 and 2 with Labour and Greens struggling. I'm guessing the average Con voter is too posh to be bothered with superficial polls.

You really are getting far too excited over a meaningless web poll

From what I can gather it's not even restricted to UK based voters, so anybody with Internet access could vote.

Short of visiting every voters house and trying to get them to pretend the poll is real you will never get a 100% indicator of what will happen. It's hard to deliver a mock election, especially in the era of protest voting. (I'd be keen to see the results of a poll posted on SN, I expect Labour will mirror the Ranker list.)

I can imagine Conservative voters are a lot more reserved with things like opinion polls than UKIP/Labour voters.

The bookies have Cons favourite last time I checked and they are usually the ones that "have" to be right!

Still, it's heading to 9,000 votes which isn't something to be sniffed at.

I'm sure Conservative voters are quietly confident for May but securing 13 votes out of 8,546 in any poll has to raise eyebrows.

My point is even if a poll was only posted on the Britain First facebook page there are plenty of "anti-fascist" trolls who would vote for rival parties in the poll.

I wonder how long this thread would go with just Matt talking to himself.

Anyways, we've proven plenty of times now that this Ranker poll is utterly meaningless so just let it die for **** sake.
