I was perusing the [Fleshlight thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=620586) and was curious to see the poll results but none of the voting options applied to me. I suppose I could log off and see them but that seems like a hassle. Anyway to view the polling results without voting or logging off? ---

On the right side, beneath the poll, click on “View Poll Results” ---
