Poll: Are you still doing Lent?
WE’RE OVER TWO weeks into Lent and four weeks out from Easter.
A Christian tradition, people test themselves each year by making a Lenten vow and give something up in the 40-day lead in to Easter.

Poll Results:
No, I gave up giving up (3063)
No interest/No opinion (2840)
Yes, I'm still going strong (2542)
