Haven't seen any option to edit the poll yet, perhaps hitting the report button and asking the mods to quit laziness and get the job done, might help.

IIRC correctly, polls=kryptonite for mods. I think that only Jeremy can make a poll look good. And it's not laziness, we merely redirect our energies into a state of restfulness that will allow us to leap into action when the need arises.

You can't edit a poll once it's started, by design (as that would make the poll results nearly useless).

I fully intend to steal this sentence.
