Poll voting privacy

Is there true privacy in our polls when the poll is set up to be anonymous?

Can a poster click on a choice and remain anonymous to all ...including the moderators?

Will the moderators know who it was that voted for Stalin?

Could Will Haney figure it out?

Actually I don't think we can see who votes on anonymous polls.

The ex moderators kept all the keys to the anonymous poll box. It has been shut tight ever since, except to the few....

Demi-mods and posters with sock puppets that have some moderator privileges can see the votes.

It doesn't take a lot of hacking skill to breach the security in a forum like this.
Being bored helps a bunch.
Sorry... it's just the facts.

It's way fun to fly even if ya have to crash a few.
