(forwardblue.*** is not listed on Wikipedia.
scam-detector.com has two listings. Created on 2 different dates by 2 different owners. Scores of 61/100 (bad) and 12/100 (the worst on scam-detector.com. )

I don't see how these would get any money out of people. I suspect they are from Russian hackers trying to turn backers away from Harris.
The 'poll' is bogus, of course, not published anywhere. Doesn't say where the 500% match comes from. Doubtful the quotes are real.
