[Unrepentant VN Vet]

A poll is (after you correct your spelling) a long, straight, fairly rigid object commonly used to suspend wires or other devices off the ground or surrounding water.

If you insist on the “poll” as correct spelling, I won’t bother with a definition.

It simply doesn’t have any real function, unless you consider propaganda to be real world.

I haven’t trusted polls ever since Pontius Pilate took one in that courtyard in Jerusalem.
