So its nice how the post a poll option automaticly tells the percentages for each option as they're tallied up....
BUT....
It does the percentages the same way for multiple answers polls. So if twenty people vote and each choose 2 of the 4 options, it adds it up like forty people chose one option each. That is, the percentages are out of total poll votes, not total poll voters. It just seems like it would be better on a multiple answer poll (which is really several yes/no polls stuck together) if the percentage collumn showed the percentage of voters who chose that option.
OK, so I'm a stats wonk with a mild headache, bear with me....
