Another problem with polling this way is that we can’t tell how many people voted.
The proper way is to have two comments: Vote up if bunnies are cuter. Vote down if babies are cuter.
You karma whore positive karma if your predictions as for which option would be more popular turn out to be true.
Awesome poll + prediction market in karma—what not to like?
People wouldn’t vote honestly if they thought their votes were tied to someone’s karma.
Three comments: upvote-for-bunnies, upvote-for-babies, karma-balance. You only upvote one of the first two, so you only need one balance.
Do people care about karma that much?
People who care enough to rig a poll to give them expected karma probably also care enough to be sensitive to the tactic.
I liked that downvote. I’m only 1k karmapoints short of getting into the sidebar, so maybe I should rig a few polls—are kittens cute, is evolution true etc. ;-p
