Comment on Poll: What would happen if News.YC had explicit support for polls?

Comments

Users would wonder whether they could/should vote for more than one poll choice because their philosophical mutual exclusivity is not reflected in the voting interface.

pgOP

It's not so much a question of reflecting as enforcing. If you really felt options were exclusive, you'd never discover they weren't.

I probably will eventually let poll creaters enforce exclusivity, though.
