(...) Me too. I think it's a great idea. Meta-polling seems like useful feedback for the poll conductor and for the community in general.

Let me preface this by saying that the polling mechanism just introduced, while it has some bumps (some of which have already been fixed, like the ability to keep a poll result anonymous, e.g. the CLSotW poll results are now anonymous so everyone go (...)

I'm not sure where to post this problem report so I'll send it here. Hopefully this is close to the right place. :) Anyway, just a heads up that when trying to access the ballot pages for some (but not all polls) I get the following error message: (...)
