The Presidential Election campaigns are heating up; both top two candidates are working hard to win the most powerful post in the country.

 There are so many online polls are currently active on various websites with deferent results.  Some visitors may try to manipulate the poll results by voting more than once. This is not a campaign for any particular Presidential Candidate. So please give only one vote for your preferred person.

Remember these online opinion polls don’t give 100% clear picture. Most of (90%) internet users in Sri Lanka are from Colombo District or Western Province.

You can find the poll widget on top left hand corner of this blog.

                                                                                                                           

We are (Stock Market Today) conducting an opinion poll on Sri Lanka

Presidential Election to be held in January 2010.

Our honest intention is to get a rough idea about the winner. Although there are other candidates are contesting, according to history of Sri Lankan Elections it is unrealistic to think person to win other than one of main two candidates. If you think none of the main two candidates will win the election you can vote on “I don’t know”

We are not giving special treatment to any candidate. Please vote only once. If you have any complain or suggestion, please contact us on info@stock-market-today.net.

Happy online voting!
