I should have provided more info… this is a situation where we have a running list of features that that we want to allow users to express their interest in. These are actually “sub-features” of one particular area, so we don’t want to create a whole bunch of separate topics for them to vote on. However, occasionally new sub-features are added to the list. We want users to be able to express their interest in the new ones without having everybody’s votes deleted when we add them to the poll.

The only workaround I’ve found for this is to add a new poll right after the first one each time new features are added to the list. But it ends up looking pretty awkward.

Ideas?
