MILWAUKEE - OnMilwaukee.com didn't randomly sample a stratified, area-probability sample of potential voters. Nor do its latest poll results have a margin of error of plus or minus 4.6 percentage points.

But, it did ask readers of its daily magazine to cast an early vote for Mayor over the last week. Multiple votes from identical I.P. addresses were thrown out to lessen ballot-stuffing efforts from several campaigns.

36.3 percent of people voting on OnMilwaukee.com said they would be voting for David Clarke for Milwaukee Mayor on Feb. 17, 2004. Tom Barrett was second at 33.4%. Sandy Folaron placed third at 13.1%.

Between Feb. 5-12, 2004 readers of OnMilwaukee.com were asked, "Who gets your vote in the Feb. 17 mayoral primary?"

Tom Barrett 33.4%
