Over 6000 votes and its looking very much like the most recent polls are accurate...

Hmmm.... but are trademe users an accurate demographic of the voting public? More more specifically are the trademe forum users an accurate demographic of the voting public.

I mean I was walking past Muffin Break in St Pukes the other day, where they give u a coffee bean with ever coffee and u get to drop it into a tube to show who'll you'll be voting for. Now that showed that Labour was ahead by a good 30%.

But this IS Helen Clarks electorate. So not a good demographic representation.

Like all the polls...they are pointless...bar the one that is carried out on Saturday

What sort of demographics consist of Trademe users? I would assume that they're middle class, White males, with a good disposable income that they blow on the collectibles people advertise.

That is a very, very true observation Adolf. This is one of the few times I haven't been sarcastic recently.

Another thing to take into account is also that a lot of the left voters dont have access to the internet
