Just a thought...

I was looking at the current polls and some others that I have seen. I think that it would be very important to not show the results before voting. That is if you want to have honest votes. I never look at the results until I have honestly voted but I am sure there are people out there that would look at the results and vote for whatever was winning. If you could just revise the voting booth to only show the results after the vote has been cast. That would fix this problem. I also have one other concern. I was looking at the current poll which may not be the current poll when you read this but it has some oxymorons in it. Such as: More funny Polls compared to Funnier Polls, Difference? Less polls compared to Fewer polls? Other than the grammar and wording I don't see a difference and if anyone votes for them, the vote would be split some voting one way, some another, but all wanted to vote for the same idea. Just a thought my fellow monks. :-)

I am unwise compared to all monks in this forum, they are my mentors.
