jrPolls should have a button that toggles between "Hide results" and "show results".By default it can be on "View results" to prevent influencing new voters.
I feel that feature can make the polls more interactive,responsive and provide quick feedback.Still the voters IP address will be checked to prevent multiple voting. -
A similar example:

Easily done by using the Form Designer to add a checkbox to the Poll create and update forms then modifying the module's item_detail.tpl template to look at that checkbox to decide whether to show the existing votes or not.

Do you think this feature would add any value to current polls module?(I like it but I don't know what other jamroom users think)
Since a modification of the modules item_detail.tpl will be done,what happens when there is an upgrade?

I would like this feature to also be added as an option to the jrpolls...Every website owner is going to have different opinions in either showing the existing vote or not...and what Johnchansa mentioned if adding it without it being part of the module will an upgrade eliminate the modification we add.

I also have a feature request ;).to help make this poll a bit more interactive.

Is it possible to show the last person to vote on each poll...like it's own 1 line timeline..something like this may have people also vote if they see a follower/friend that they know voting in that specific poll

I think it'd be a logical and good on/off option in the polls module as well. Seems odd, but the truth is lots of folks like seeing the voting progress and it lends a competitive spirit in certain instances.

There's now a setting in the Global Config. Results are as they are now by default, check it to show them before the use has voted. jrPoll ver 1.0.10
