I just posted a poll and voted, and left the post open to watch responses come in. I noticed the number of respondents go up, and a small 🔽 button appear below the first option. Clicking this resulted in a never-ending spinner.

I’m not sure how useful the stacktrace I can see in the browser console is, but here it is:

Looks like this XHR is returning an empty JSON object:

`https://.../polls/voters.json?post_id=3948&poll_name=poll&option_id=f15a5fb652188185434bf1f95a86d0b7&offset=1`

which causes the stacktrace above.

Is this still an issue?

Not sure – I haven’t posted a poll for a while. 😉 I’ll put one in here for testing purposes so that we can check.

Hmm, can’t repro this any more here – it could be because the poll’s not public, though. It’s not a huge issue by any means.
