    I conducted a poll for Senators wherein the user can vote up to 12 choices. The result is wrong because it was divided by the number of choices. For example I choose 12 persons, all have 8.33% instead of 100%. Please advise how I can display the correct results.

    Hi @alonagomez,

    I’m not sure about your use case, but in TotalPoll, when you enable multi-option voting, every selected choice will get a vote and be counted as a separate vote. Percentages will be relative to the total votes. If you need to customize TotalPoll to change this behavior, please reach out to our support team.

    I hope this answers your question! If you need any more clarification, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

    Regards,

    Please check below sample poll. There is only 1 question and the user must choose 3 leaders. The result shows 33% for the 3 choices in stead of 100%. How I can display the correct result?

    Based from your formula the result is wrong. It should be relative or divided by the number of user who voted.

    Hi @alonagomez

    Thank you for the sample. We’ll consider adding a feature switch to make such a use case (distribute votes evenly) feasible in TotalPoll.
