Or at least, I that's what the right-winged political formation thinks, this Wednesday night they boasted on their Twitter account the results of a survey that estimated the vote of Spaniards for 26-J. The party led by Santiago Abascal, who in the last elections was presented in 31 constituencies and obtained 0.23% of the vote, would stand as the fourth political force as "a poll on a popular website" states. But they are not talking about Sigma-nor or Metroscopia or even the CIS, but Forocoches. That's right, a poll on the website of ForoCoches, the second in the month of May in particular, and which is supposed to have involved 6,774 users (actually, the same user can vote from different IPs) and whose reliability is zero. According to the farfetched poll, Unidos Podemos and confluences would obtain 40.37% of the votes, followed by Ciudadanos, with 26.13% and the People's Party, with 10%. Vox would become the fourth political force (3.71%), ahead of the Spanish Socialist Worker's Party, whose voting intentions would be around 1%. Users of the largest forum of Spain made these surveys each month with mixed results. For example, in the first survey conducted in May, Vox won just 1.54% of the vote, behind Podemos, Izquierda Unida and the confluences (34.27%),Ciudadanos (30.77%) , PP (10.18%) and PSOE (2.18%). Just one month earlier, in April, was the formation of Albert Rivera the first in voting intentions (35.37%), followed by Podemos (28.72%), whilethe formation led by Santiago Abascal barely reached 1, 73%. The twit from the general account of the green formation, through which also sought to boost the hashtags # SpainGreatAgain and #VoxInthePolls has caused mocks dozens of users on Twitter.[/quote] It's sorta old, but it's gold.

In other news, trump brags having 100% approval from /pol/ users
[QUOTE=proboardslol;50558054]In other news, trump brags having 100% approval from /pol/ users[/QUOTE] Actually they didn't even get close to that, here's the original chart: [t]http://e04-elmundo.uecdn.es/assets/multimedia/imagenes/2016/06/02/14648701431309.jpg[/t] Vox barely got any votes, and a bunch of them are ironical since that forum does not have a serious atmosphere.
And the other day, several people of that group went to Gibraltar to deploy a spanish flag over the rock in order to "retake it" :v: [URL="https://twitter.com/vox_es/status/744956934529265664"] [/URL][URL="https://twitter.com/vox_es/status/744956934529265664"][media]https://twitter.com/vox_es/status/744956934529265664[/media][/URL] [URL="https://twitter.com/vox_es/status/745213186308202496"] [/URL][URL="https://twitter.com/vox_es/status/745213186308202496"][media]https://twitter.com/vox_es/status/745213186308202496[/media][/URL] [QUOTE=Electrocuter;50557974]"Here the communists that killed 10000000000 million people" "Here the ones from Pablo Inglesias(Yes, the one that eats kids)" What the fuck is up with this chart lol.

Is so easy to manipulate and not having later to give any kind of explanation/source or pay fines on this country...

Yeah, I'd take those results with a mountain-sized pinch of salt. (Shame we can't post image macros here, burningcar.gif would be fitting)
isn't this the forum that's actually about cars?
[QUOTE=lol user;50561452]isn't this the forum that's actually about cars?[/QUOTE] Started out as one, now it's about anything but cars
[QUOTE=MotherPuncher;50562093]Started out as one, now it's about anything but cars[/QUOTE] It actually still contains a big section about cars, not as big as the shitposting or the selling/buying section though.

[QUOTE=MotherPuncher;50562093]Started out as one, now it's about anything but cars[/QUOTE] Like facepunch
for reference, forocoches.com forums is the spanish equivalent of bodybuilding.com forums
