Did you want that poll to be public like all the others ? Polls are now private by default. And what’s with all the percentages ?! Aren’t they supposed to add up to 100 ? ---

Hm… I think I can see how to edit it, but it tells me that I can’t change it after 5 minutes. I think this is something we need to bump up to the Discourse folks. ---

Looks like it’s a pain/impossible to edit polls after 5 minutes, so I closed the poll and will re-open it in order to make the votes public. Sorry all. Please re-vote if necessary. Thanks, mods. mmm ---
