note the above poll has a large for PH vote for labour

The reason is it is a poll where you can have multiple choices, now when you can have multiple choices the first option is always checked unless you uncheck it. Most people are used to the first option unchecking itself when another choice is made so dn't expect this.

So could it be changed that when a multiple choice poll is selected that nothing is checked before a vote or votes are cast

You could always put the first option as 'I'm too stupid to vote in polls properly, lord help the country' wink but I see your point.

Excellent

Does it involve a brain upgrade for people that vote in polls?

I have a new version on our test server where nothing is selected by default. The only problem is this makes it possible for the muppets to vote for nothing at all, which I'm not sure is an improvement! hehe
