Unvote and revote (correctly) or abstain (after voting) in a poll?


For the most part I like to think that my "Subject:" or "Thread Starter" lines say it all... at lest I try.

If I accidentally choose the wrong thing in a poll assumingly I could go to a moderator but most often wouldn't bother, would it be to hard to get an undo option there?

Unfortunately, once a poll vote is placed, it cannot be undone.

I've been here a fairly long time, and am pretty darn grey, so I'd say chances are I have.

What do you think of multiple choices in the LQ-MCA's; e.g: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...0/#post5286357

I don't see it messing with the results except making a possible tie and adding more votes?

Not that this is the proper thread to ask but feedback is still cool.
Put it to a vote?

While some of the recent Official LQ Polls have been multi-vote, we have no plans for that in the MCA's at this time. Thanks for the feedback though, and if other members have input in the idea do feel free to post.
