I've installed Advanced Poll and VotingAPI.
After creating a new poll, and making it active, it appears to close after One user votes.
The original voter has the option of "Cancel My Vote", but any other user that goes to the poll sees a closed poll with no option to vote or cancel the vote.

Thanks for any help.

These are anonymous users or logged in users? And what version of VotingAPI are you using?

WOW! You guys are fast...
These are logged in users (My site is closed to non registered users)
and I am using VotingAPI 5.x 1.5

They are using office computers, which share the same IP address.

Thanks for your help!

Funny... As I was typing my last message, I noticed that Beta4 was added to the site. I've downloaded and installed, but still same results. One vote and the poll is closed.

Normally I'm a lot slower to respond, but I happened to be working on advpoll right now.

I believe this IP level checking was added to logged-in users by http://drupal.org/node/107990

Attached patch would revert this change - does it fix things for you? Run "patch -p0 < advpoll_ipchecking.patch" in the advpoll directory to apply it.

I downloaded the attached patch. I'm kinda new to Drupal. How do I run the patch? Do I call it from my browser? By typing my url + /modules/advpoll/advpoll_ipchecking.patch?

Thanks for your quick response on my issue. I really, really appreciate it.

Okay try this zipped version instead: http://advpoll-dev.ck37.com/advpoll.zip

Chris,
Thank you so much! Works great.
I really appreciate how quickly you responded and kept on my issue until it was solved.
I know I made the right decision in choosing Drupal. Customer service means a lot!!!

Thanks again.

No problem, although response times do vary a lot, in this project and others.

I went ahead and committed the fix since it's an important bug. http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=67131

It looks like eligibility checking could use a more thorough examination and probably a configurable option or two.
