Description | Minnesota couple Pete and Alisha Arnold put their abortion up to an Internet vote on Birthornot.com. The results are in: 78% of respondents think the couple should abort! But Pete says most of those 1.5 million votes are fake.
After factoring out the "fraudulent votes," Arnold writes in a blog post that the final tally is actually 73% in favor of keeping the baby. How convenient, that the "real" results back up Arnold's own rabid pro-life views. It doesn't really matter, since the couple previously admitted the whole thing was a pathetic hoax that was supposed to prove a point about abortion or something. (That didn't stop Alisha from getting fired from her tech job.) |
