BUG: The display of the data for the multiple-choice polls seems to reset at some point, though I can still see the complete raw data when clicking at them… e.g. right now, though 68 people have voted for the “best pony”, at the display I only see the choice of the 68th person (Applejack) having a single vote, and all the other choices are falsely at zero.
Confirmed. The issue is in an interaction between the polling code and Reddit’s custom ORM which causes vote-totals to be cached, but not persisted to the database correctly. I have a fix, which I’m testing now. All polls created before the fix is applied will be affected; it’ll be possible to restore them, but it’d take some work which isn’t a priority for me.

Similar things with other polls.

I’ve just deployed a fix that will apply to all new poll votes. Thanks jimrandomh for passing on the bug report and initial patch.
Here’s a screenshot of that with my poll:
I still have access to the raw poll data.
