This new program allows you take a vote or conduct a survey in any Tribe discussion. Here's how it works. The first post of the thread defines the voting selections bracked by double equals on each side. For intance:

==John Edwards==
==wesley clark==
==hillary Clinton==
==dick Gephardt==

Case is irrelevant. To place a vote simply use a SINGLE equal sign before a unique word in one of the voting selections. For intance, =hillary or =clinton count as a vote towards hillary clinton. =John or =Edwards would count as a vote for John Edwards.

As the discussion progresses, YOU MAY CHANGE YOUR VOTE as many times as you want.

Here's some sample results from a recent test survey.
