I re-categorized this because it doesn’t fit our definition of a bug.

Past topics, for reference:

> Hi Team Discourse ! I’m here to report on a little bug, when I create a topic with a poll and pin it to banner topic two things are broken : it is impossible to vote If we go inside the topic and vote, the result is not visible on the banner. I run in a fairly recent version (updated 2 or 3 days ago), but it doesn’t seem that it was fixed since then. There is nothing urgent, I noticed it on a little forum under construction, and I doubt these kinds of ideas are often used.

I agree that it would be a nice feature to have.
