It was apparent to me that very few wanted all votes to be visible before the end of voting, but several people wanted to mix it up from month to month. I thought the best way to discover exactly how many people wanted a mix verses those who want all votes to be hidden until voting ends every month was to put up a second poll with only those two options. For the record, although it makes no difference to me from the standpoint of extra work (it's really not), I don't care for the alternating option. I'd rather have all hidden votes, and that's how I voted in the poll. But I want to be fair and make sure that's what the majority wants.
