Looks like WTNH took the poll down. Probably getting the same results as the courant so they replaced it with a Lance Armstrong poll. Absolutely dishonest but about what I would expect.
Courant results a/o 12 noon.

Should Congress approve President Obama's gun control proposals?

Yes. They are common-sense measures that work toward keeping guns out of the wrong hands, and don't impinge on the Second Amendment. (119 responses)
12%

No. We don't need more gun laws. (831 responses)
85%

Partly. Congress should approve universal background checks and a ban on high-capacity magazines. The assault rifle proposal is more symbolic than substantive. (32 responses)

1067 votes now, and still: 12% yes, 85% no, 3% partly

and shame on WTNH for taking the poll down. I agree with desmo, I'm sure they removed the poll simply because they did not agree with the results they were getting

13.9

82.9

3.2

Total = 1362

I too would agree with the assumption that News8 took down their poll for political reasons.
