When last we checked, a slim majority of fans said Harry Potter would die in the last book in JK Rowling's series.
The informal poll, conducted by HPANA, garnered over 45,000 votes and was even cited by The Sun in an article.
With Rowling's recent revelations about upcoming deaths, we decided to ask again: Dead meat, or life so sweet?
Unlike our last poll, however, you only get two choices: Yay or nay.
Vote now and spread the word.
Put the poll on your web site, blog or journal! Just copy and paste the following code:

I hate to say it but I voted that he was going to die. It just seems like its going to end up that way. I'll die if it's going to end up like that.

I voted that he is not going to die. I really don't want him to die!!! Yet it is her choice for his death, but it would be really awful if he did die. I am so going to try and post this poll everywhere and every place I can. I so don't wish for Harry to die. It will be so sad!!!!

Cool idea. I didn't think the results would change that much, but I guess I was wrong. ;) Can't wait to find out who's right (but of course it will be me, I voted 'no').

I don't think Harry would die because good always overcomes
evil.Anyhow,the answer will come when book 7 comes out.Anyways Voldemort is a cruel "tyrant" , and tyrants always get overpowered after a while.

I voted yes and I think I'd be actually kind of disappointed if he does live becuase this story isn't a fairy tale. At the same time if she can find a really good way to pull it off that he lives I'd be thrilled, a change from what my original view was.

Boy, those results are pretty close. I don't know for sure, but it really wouldn't surprise me if she did have him die in the last book. But, I don't think she would have him die at LV's hand. She may skip ahead a few years and have him die happily of old age... :o)

I say no....in a interview that J.K did...
R: I'm not asking if you've done that, obviously, but have you been tempted to bump him off because it's just huge...
JK: No, I've never been tempted to kill him off before the end of Book 7 because I've always planned seven books; that's where I want to - I want to finish on seven books.
JK: But I can completely understand the mentality of an author who thinks I'm going to kill him off because then there can be no non-author-written sequels, so they call it. So, it will end with me. And, after I'm dead and gone, they won't be able to bring back the character and write a load of...
R: That never struck me before...
JK: Well I mean, Agatha Christie did that with Poirot, didn't she? She wanted to finish him off herself.
J: So, you say you completely understand it, but you're not going to commit yourself?
JK: No, I'm not going to commit myself... I don't want the hate mail apart from anything else.

Hmmm. That's a REALLY TOUGH desicion to make. I think since rowling was distraught at the fact that she can only make 7 books that she doesn't want others to complete it and take credit for it. So I think she's gonna kill him. But then how will the story end. I felt a pain, i think i
m dying. Bye.

I really don't know if i could handle him dying! that would be an awful way of ending the series...sure others have to die (as long as it's none of the trio), but come on....don't kill harry!

I vote "no" naturally. I hope he doesn't die, or at least I don't feel he will. That would suck very VERY much! With all Harry's been through he deserves the best!

I voted no. It seems that JK is contemplating the idea of him dying in her head, but I really dont think that she will ever go through with it.

I voted yes that he will die. I have many reasons, but who knows if they are wrong or right? I guess everyone will have to just wait to read to find out!

Ha ha, people keep saying that he won't die because they don't want him to. That's funny because I seriously doubt that JKR is going to call you up and be like "Hey! I was just wondering if you thought Harry should die!" No, she's going to write what's in her mind, and what she thinks is a fitting ending. I personally think he will die, but I have all kinds of theories on this. But we CAN'T know until the book comes out now can we?

He better NOT die, but if J.K. Rowling wants him to die I won't argue about it. UPDATE: I told a local T.V. News station (Today's TMJ4) about the two deaths in the next book and they aired it too!! (Anyone who was watching TMJ4 at 4:00 in the Southeast areas of Wisconsin would have seen it, expecially Milwaukee!!!I gave them the tip about this site and they aired the video too from the UK!!!)

I think Harry's going to die at the end -- not in battle, but in the epilogue as an old, old man.
But yeah, Harry's dead.

I I don't want him to die, nor do I think he will, but I think it would make a good plot twist, exspecially if he dies nobally.

sherrilina says:
Though the latest interview certainly brings more doubts to my mind, I still don't think that JK will kill Harry off in the last book--it would be way too depressing, and make the series end on a bad, sour note--and why would she want that? Probably Hagrid will die, and maybe Luna or Neville (though it seems from HBP that they are no longer main characters).
