From a statistics point of view, this poll is unnecessary as doing the math to come to this poll makes #1 win regardless.

Adding #2 to 1/2 of #3 to get a number that's very close to #1 is wrong because you also have to be fair and add 1/2 of #3 to #1 and then #1 is the clear winner. That makes #1 22 and #2 12. How is that even close? Even if you give #4 to #2, #1 still wins.

Besides, we had a perfectly fair vote and it came out #1 was the clear winner. To then have another vote where that could be (unfairly) overturned isn't in keeping with having the poll in the first place.
