Perhaps we do need some explicit guidelines about the conduct of polls after all, beyond “don’t be an asshole”. Something about employing neutral point of view, not using a poll for purposes other than conducting a bona fide poll, and making a serious attempt to design it to obtain unbiased data. I had expected this to be obvious, but it seems not.
