### More Info ###

This plugin is a reborn of once-has-been-famous Democracy Poll. Even if it hasn't been updated since far-far away 2006, it still has the great idea of adding users' own answers. So here's a completely new code, I have left only the idea and great name of the original DP by Andrew Sutherland.

What can it perform?

* adding new polls;
* works with cache plugins: wp total cache, wp super cache, etc...
* users may add their own answers (Democracy), the option may be disabled if necessary;
* multi-voting: users may multiple answers instead of a single one (may be disabled on demand);
* closing the poll after the date specified beforehand;
* showing a random poll when some are available;
* closing polls for still unregistered users;
* a comfortable editing of a selected poll: 'Edit' key for administrators;
* votes amount editing;
* a user can change his opinion when re-vote option is enabled;
* remember users by their IP, cookies, WP profiles (for authorized users). The vote history may be cleaned up;
* inserting new polls to any posts: the [demоcracy] (shortcode). A key in visual editor is available for this function;
* a widget (may be disabled);
* convenient polls editing: the plugin's Panel is carried out to the WordPress toolbar; (may be disabled);
* .css or .js files may be disabled or embedded to HTML code;
* showing a note under the poll: a short text with any notes to the poll or anything around it;
* changing the poll design (css themes);
* primary interface is Russian, but Enlglish interface is also available.
