### Linking a Poll

Common provides a one-member one-vote polling functionality that thread creators and admins can add to their respective threads. Authors can set whatever question they choose, along with as many answers as they wish to provide.\
\
**Community members typically add polls to threads or proposals as quick temperature checks to see whether or not the community supports the idea**

Here is a video on how to add a poll to a thread:
