- Don't complain about lack of options. You've got to pick a few
when you do multiple choice. Those are the breaks.
- Feel free to suggest poll ideas if you're feeling creative.
I'd strongly suggest reading the past polls first.
- This whole thing is wildly inaccurate. Rounding errors,
ballot stuffers, dynamic IPs, firewalls. If you're using these
numbers to do anything important, you're insane.
