I wasn't logged in when I initially filled out this survey, and the cookies in my browser might have been acting funny for whatever reason. So, I may have mistakenly filled out this form twice. If I did without anonymity, ignore my duplicate result. If it was anonymous, and it appears a user did enter twice, and the results are the same, then ignore one of them, as it could easily be from me.

So, non-logged in users are allowed to vote to polls? (Does anyone know if that's deliberate?)

Does anyone know if that's deliberate?

It's not true, at least normally. If you are logged out and press "Vote", you are asked to log in.
