Managing & Tracking Polls & Quizzes
When a poll has been created, drafted or closed it will show up on the main poll management page. From here you can select to view responses, close the poll or edit drafts.
Within each of the sections below you will provide a brief overview of the functionality that is available on the poll management page dependent on the state that your poll is currently in.
Polls which are set in the draft state can be edited by any administrastor. Saving a poll as a draft is useful if you are planning to make changes at a later date.
If you have elected to issue your poll in the future, using the scheduled opening time you can make changes to the poll by clicking the "Edit"
button up to the moment it is published.
Once a poll has been published to your chat or channel you have the options to:
View the responses given in more detail including viewing the users and timestamps their vote was given

End the poll and close it on Telegram. It will remain visible but chat users can no longer provide responses
Once a poll has been closed you can:
View responses to see the totals received for each poll option as well as timestamps and respondent data
View the poll by jumping to the message on your Telegram app/client
