A few points:

Firstly there should be a "none of the above" option.

Secondly this vote should be seen as nothing more than a straw poll to
see what people think (I'm sure it will be, but this should be made clear)

Finally "Campaign Against the Nannying Enforcement State" was just a
joke, not a serious suggestion! :-)

No there should be a none of the above if this was a vote. It isn't.

Like it says the point is to reduce the pool from which we choose.


Yes I kept the joke in cos I hoped it'd offer some light relief.

Is it possible to set it so we can vote for more than one option, then?

I've looked at the options and there isn't one that really leaps out for me, but four or five that i definitely prtefer over the others, so I would like to be able to vote for all of them instead of having to pick just one.

Restart the poll and anounce that you are doing it and why. it's only a click to recast one's vote and only 13 people have voted yet. :-)

Well if the poll is re-started shouldn't "Unblinkered" come off? I thought we couldn't have that name, which is why we amended it to Unblinkered View.
