  I have a poll running that allows multiple choice. But it is deceptively counting those as multiple “votes” – for instance, if you say

  “Who likes:

  Apples
  Bananas
  Oranges”

  Then if one person votes for apples and bananas, that counts as two votes! That means the percentages are worthless. Is there any way to have that really count voters?
