How you voted......

Is it possible to see how certain people voted in a poll?

 

(I have looked but can't find information on this)

 

KiZzI ;)

I seriously doubt it. I even doubt that administrators have that ability, outside of having the dev team integrate it. Not really for security reasons, just the lack of such a need. A poll is by definition not intended to segregate the results.

The reason they put curtains around polling booths is to protect the anonymity of the voter. It should be no ones business how someone else votes.

depends on the poll, some polls do list who answered what.

 

Ex: Is there a god? What do you think?

___I think Kizzi is refering specifically to Hypography polls & not polls in general. When you create a Hypography poll, you have a number of options to choose, one of which is whether or not you want everyone to see how people voted. You also choose how many poll options (up to 10), whether or not voters may choose more than 1 option, & how long the poll runs.

___I have never chosen the let-everyone-see-the-vote option, so I don't know how to access it. ;)

When you create a poll, there is an option to make it anonymous or not. It is impossible to change this after the poll has been published.
