    Or you can try externally hosted polls. Some are free

    I added WP-Polls but it's not showing in the Plugins page; I added Democracy Polls and it shows on the Plugins page but not on the widgets page. Any help?

    i think democracy polls has to be manually added to the sidebar by editing the sidebar.php file in your themes folder.

    I use http://www.dpolls.com
    Quite easy to publish the polls. If you hit into problems, turn off wordpress' WYSIWYG

    -- read me
