Introducing Twitter Polls, a simple and effective way for users to create polls and voice their opinion

Twitter launched Twitter Polls for users across the world. In the coming days, everyone will be able to create Polls on Twitter.

 If you want the public’s opinion on anything — what to name your dog, who will win tonight’s game, which election issue people care most about — there’s no better place to get answers than on Twitter. For Poll creators, it’s a new way to engage with Twitter’s massive audience and understand exactly what people think. For those participating, it’s a very easy way to make your voice heard.

 Previously, Twitter offered a few ways to participate in polls that included tweeting questions, tracking replies, tallying favourites, retweets and hashtag votes. Now, with just a couple of taps, people can weigh in on all the topics they care about. You can now create a quick two-choice poll right from the Compose Box and it will remain live for 24 hours. You can vote on any poll, and how you voted is not shared publicly.

Over the next few days, Twitter is rolling out the ability to create polls on iOS, Android, and on desktop at twitter.com.
