Starting now, any new discussion post on Polkassembly can also be a poll. Simply click on "Add a poll to this discussion" when creating the post.

Any account can vote yes/no, and change their vote later. This vote is off-chain, it does not require an address and reflects a non binding account's opinion.

There are 2 sections:

• the "Polls signals" part is a general poll overview and shows what everyone thinks.
• The "Council signals" part shows what current council members have voted (if any).

Council votes are counted in the poll signal votes. We think polls are particularly interesting for future treasury proposers who want to get the opinion of the community and council members before making a proposal.

Per default a poll will be open for ~2 weeks, after which it will be closed and users will not be able to vote any more.

A poll can be used for anything, also just for fun, like this one. Do you like it? Give us feedback!
