I didn’t find such a filter in the search feature. Is it possible to find posts containing a poll?

This is a nice feature request, I gave it a shot today and there is a PR ready: [FEATURE: Add `in:polls` filter to search by pmusaraj · Pull Request #19885 · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/19885)

It should get merged over the next few days.
