When i set up a poll everything works exept that once someone has voted nobody else can vote and the only screen you see is the results page but if i as an admin. go in to the vote section and change ip address to vote then back again it will let one more person vote but i have to repeatt the procedure after every vote.

can someone tell me what is wrong? why wont it allow others to vote.

My understanding is that the voting is cookie based. What I mean is that when you vote, it saves a cookie in your browser. If you delete your cookies (as an anonymous user) you should be able to vote again.

Beyond that, I don't know what could be the problem.

I have the same problem. When an anonymous user submits a vote it prevents any other anonymous user voting. I think it might be a core page cache problem

Is it cookie based or IP based?
