How to post polls?

I see the post a poll box at the bottom of the options, but I don't see where you type the poll suggestions? Or is that I'm just not looking close enough

Once you submit the post, you'll be taken to a screen where you can select your choices.

Most polls I see on HF and WB are fatally defective and mostly good only for entertainment purposes. I think my problem is that my college degree required a course in statistics and we studied polls and polling. Quite elucidating to learn how polls can be negligently ... or intentionally ... skewed.

Anyway, if you're going to post polls, and want them to be "valid," you have to put a fair amount of thought into them and frankly should have them reviewed by others for critique prior to publicizing them. But if they're just for entertainment, have at it, I say.

Just my opinion. YMMV.
