Component body
The module has several advantages over core poll:
- Removes the 1 vote per IP restriction (still records the IP address so malicious votes can be purged)
- Voting is done via AJAX
- Poll voting is recorded locally in the browser with local storage (so you see the results if you already have voted)
- Poll results are returned via AJAX, and can be cached in varnish (with potentially a different TTL to the page)
- Leverages core poll's content creation ability
- Allows more than 1 option to be chosen, up to a configurable maximum, if more than one option is allowed, then checkboxes are presented rather than radio buttons
