Meaning - can anybody, even administrators, see who voted a certain way on a poll? I was thinking of doing for the election but I don't want to if I can't be certain that people's views are protected.

I can't answer your question, but I can say based on what I've seen on the bored with respect to the election, I don't think you have to worry about protecting their views...

Sunflower is probably right...
but I don't know the answer either. LB may know and can answer later, when he wakes up.

Either that or if you really want to know right now, set up a fake poll and just ask a dumb question to test it. Ask what everyone's favorite cake flavor is or something. I don't know.

Chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. And a big glass of milk on the side.

I can not see who voted for what. I'm not sure about Dave at the very top of the chain.....

Just happened to see this while I was picking through posts looking for other things.
No, I cannot see who voted for what in a poll. There are no settings or privileges for any level of user that allows that, to the best of my knowledge.
