Rather than bump / revive [Which SDMB Poll Has Had The Most Voters?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=611029) which I started 06-03-2011 and which was last posted to 10-03-2013, here’s a chance to see if any SDMB Poll has had more voters than [How old are you?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=610944) which was started 06-02-2011 by **Anaamika** and is still open and has had (so far) 793 Voters! If you know of one with more voters, please post a link to it. ---

Interesting that the top two polls are both about age. ---

> [@yellowjacketcoder](#): > > Interesting that the top two polls are both about age. The point of this thread is that those polls may NOT be the TOP ones. They’re just some I’m familiar with and I don’t know how to search for “Voters” and “Polls” effectively. That’s why I’m asking for help. If you’ve seen polls with more voters, please let me know. With a link if possible. ---

Age polls are NOT about :: Politics Religion Sex Guns Race Woo Are not news cycle sensitive Oh so last year Everybody can play without getting snarked. Maybe some real hot topic but so far… I don’t remember nothing… But I never do so YMMV ---

I’m too tired to do the work right now, but searching “View Poll Results” site:boards.straightdope.com -pool on Google seems to give a good list of poll results. You’d have to open them up to see the data. \*Good insisted that I wanted pools, not polls. The first hit was about pools. So I added the -pool. ---
