Answering a Poll
When a poll is opened by a moderator or presenter, it automatically appears on your screen. If the moderator or presenter has 
chosen to broadcast poll results, you will automatically see a tally of the results of all responses next to each poll answer.
Step 1
If the poll responses display as radio buttons, click a single button to answer the poll. If the poll responses display as 
check boxes, check one or more check boxes for your response.
Step 2
To change your answer, click a new button (or check or uncheck one or more check boxes).
