The results of the CBC New's poll is still underway. CBC New's is a unique and widely popular news outlet with over 1 million unique visitors per day. Published on July 31, 2012 the poll has already seen 27,295 votes and counting.
The poll asks: If you had the opportunity to live forever - albeit cybernetically - would you do it?
Some answers included in the poll are, "Yes, at any and all cost.", "Yes, but only if I could afford it comfortably.", "No, I don't want to live forever.", and "I don't believe that this technology will ever exist.".
The lead number of votes goes to, "Yes, at any and all cost." with a total of 9,605 votes (35.29%). As I write this, this number has jumped up by one hundred. The second lead number of votes goes to, "Yes, but only if I could afford it comfortably." with a total of 4,669 votes (17.1%).
Both of these answers could be considered a "Yes" vote, and so combine they equal to 52.39% in favor of cybernetic immortality.
4,556 people (16.91%) said, "No, I don't want to live forever.", and 2,453 people (9.11%) said "I don't believe that this technology will ever exist."
We will prove them wrong!
