CNN's strange idea of 0%

Today a question came up on http://www.cnn.com, asking whether states be allowed to regulate sex between consenting adults. I answered "no" to that. To me, consenting sex is a private affair in which the government should stay out. So I clicked the No radio button and hit "Vote". It said "This page can't be displayed". I tried it on Netscape. I got "This page can't be found on this server", or something like that. I clicked "view results". I got Yes, 100%, No, 0%. Huhh?? It cannot be zero because I just entered a "No" vote. Doesn't my vote count? From now on I am going to take the results of CNN polls with a grain of salt. It seems that CNN doesn't know what 0% is.
