More Voters than Votes?
In a poll I recently created, there is one more voter than there are total votes casted. How could this be? I only allowed one vote per person, so I'm not sure how this happened. Could the counter be broken?

There is a tab when you create a poll that says 'allow blank votes', which is automatically selected...
why anyone would want to cast a blank vote however...

Ahh haa! You're right, now that you mention it, I remember that now. I don't know what the heck that's there for, but oh well.

It's there (I think) so that people who don't have an opinion can still the poll results.

Re: More Voters than Votes?
that one voter may have been me. I once clicked vote by mistake before I had actually chosen an option, and you can't undo that, can you?
(but what you can do is see the results without taking part in the poll, so that isn't the reason why blank votes are allowed).
