How can I find out what specific members voted which way on a poll?

No as in it's not possible (which seems strange), or no as in you think I have no right to know?

No as in its not possible. You could mod the files if you wanted, but bear in mind that, depending on the topic, people might not want their views to be known, so make sure you state that you would know.

So then how does it keep up with who has voted & who hasn't?

If -boRg- says it cant be done, then it cant. He created the forum, he should know.

But, you could write a mod to record who voted and who didnt. It wouldnt be that hard, just take up some time.

Cookies! Awe man! We'll, I've had suspicion of people somehow voting more than once (on polls setup for just one vote). So if they have been, now I know how. Oh well.

It also stores the user ID of the last person voting, so if they do delete their cookies they still wouldn't be able to vote until another user has voted in that poll.
