Beauprez the default option in Fox 31 online poll

On October 16, KDVR Fox 31 News' website, MyFoxColorado, featured an interactive poll asking, "With the election less than three weeks away, who do you plan to vote for in the race for Governor?" Although the poll gave website visitors a choice of five candidates and the option "I don't intend to vote," it listed Republican Bob Beauprez as the default option.

Colorado Media Matters visited MyFoxColorado multiple times on October 16. In each instance, Beauprez's name was preselected.
