[edit]

  1. You have to create a poll in either the source mode of the RichTextEditor, or the WikiTextEditor.
  2. Polls are unique to the content between the tags.   So, don't make a poll where the question is "Who is coming to the next meeting?".  Instead, use "Who is coming to the meeting on Nov 27th, 2011?
