ok, for the record, there is only one difference between pulic polls and
voting -- when the results can/should be displayed.  that's the *only*
difference.

does my note above help in any way?

if not, then let me rephrase.  the only difference between a voting
application and a public polling application is what you see when you submit
your vote.  with a voting application you see a page thanking you for your
vote.  with a public polling application you see a page showing the results
of the poll up to the minute.

hope this helps,
