How I run these polls
Readers of vouchernaut.com who chose to answer, one answer per browser. The results describe the people who answered, not the whole UK population, and aren't weighted.
- Each browser can answer a poll once, and a signed-in member once wherever they are. A connection can send only so many answers an hour, which stops anyone stuffing the ballot.
- Where the options have no natural order, each reader sees them in a random order, so the first one doesn't get an unfair lead.
- The figures are live: every result on the site updates as answers come in. A story only quotes a poll once 100 people have answered it.
- Answers are anonymous. I keep when and where on the site someone answered; the address they answered from is used only for the hourly limit and deleted after 30 days.
- You're welcome to quote any result: link to its page, which has the totals to download as a spreadsheet.
