I understand some of the concerns in this thread. But if someone is going to be influenced by an exit poll then he really doesnt need the right to vote. In reality most of the people who are eligible to vote will have sufficient karma to know the contributions of each and every one in the list and i am sure no one will get influenced by this poll. It would have been a different scenario if even newbies had the right to vote, since that is not the case, i think there is nothing wrong with this poll as long as it does not hurt anyone else in the community. Infact this community is open and as long as anyone is not effected by the post anyone can post anything and everything.
