I think it's rather odd that you can't edit your choice in polls. How come?

There should be an option that the poll creator can toggle. He can enable or disable members from editing their choice in the poll...

But they can't change their own votes either.

Why would you need the option to delete/edit your poll choice? It opens the door for people not being able to make up their minds and constantly changing their stance on what the poll was made for. As a result, the poll's results may constantly change and the poll creator may be unable to get a clear, consistent image of whatever statistic it is they're trying to learn.

I can enable this ability from the ACP, but I don't know how much practicality would come of it, as it has the potential to greatly reduce the accuracy of polls.

Sorry TS, but I still don't get it. I think that only 5% of the users would actually do that. And it would only confuse people if it had public voting (showing you the names). Then I would understand

I think we should be aloud to edit our choices. Sometimes I choose the wrong answer by accident. x)
