A poll is used to ask one simple multiple choice question. |
Participants can choose from among answers.
You can restrict voters to select just one answer to your question or allow them to choose multiple answers. The answers can also be optionally added by the voters if allowed.

Once Create Poll button is clicked, a wizard dialog for entering a new Poll details will be displayed
The poll owner can then:
