Well - I stand corrected.

Fortunately, as I stated in the above entry - attempts at abuse of our polls are few and far between.

But, at least we can pull the poll back out from 'behind' registration so it is visible without being logged in to the site.

My other comments stand. The polls (and the hundreds of others across the Web) are what they are. Non scientific surveys of public opinion.

In most cases our readers have shown themselves to be worthy of trust. Where we find egregious violations of the trust we will remove the polls and make a note of the reasons.

Thanks

You are lying I'm afraid. You do not need to be logged in to vote. You can hit the POST method with zero authentication and register a vote. While you may not see the vote without being logged in, you can certainly vote as many times as you wish with zero accountability.

Care for another demonstration?

Much like you have a security code for this blog, you should have a security code for the poll. In fact, you should have to submit your security credentials to the poll itself.
