We need more votes for yes!!

The "No" and "Thinking about it" can be seen to be pro or at least neutral. We're at 80% best case, 45% worst case.

Poll is now closed. We wiped the floor with GFSA. They managed less than 4000 votes out of almost 21000 cast.

Final tally:

Yes 31% 6586 votes

No 31% 6687 votes
31

I’m thinking about it 19% 4060 votes
19

I’ll never own a gun 18% 3900 votes
18

We closed the gap very nicely on the "no's" (as opposed to the "never's") - two more votes & we would have overtaken them!

This is where the poll results are today. That is three more for "No" than since the poll closed and two more for "Thinking". It puts the percentage for Yes and No from equal at 31% to 31 for Yes and 32 for No. How do the numbers change after the poll has closed?
