I had coded something similar for TADHack 2018[0] we didn't get it as cleanly as this but we got it working enough to demo. I haven't had a good chance to post our original code yet though. Looks nice, would love to know about the back-end stack used. We used Flask / MongoDB for ours.
Yeah I used MongoDB cause it was just a quick apt-get install away and I was ready to use it. I have not had the pleasure of using Express yet but I'm sure I will at some point.
With polltime you get unique links for each option, meaning people can see options before the click on a link to vote - I think this would increase response rate, but no data to back that
Have you thought
about adding a box on homepage to text me an example to my phone? Probably with reassurance that the number won’t be saved and used again.
I'm a bit bewildered. I've created a pole, which takes me to a page with the question and options to vote or view the results. Am I then supposed to text that to my users for them to click the links? I was expecting your site to send out the texts and accept the options as replies.

Ours is Poll IO (terrible name I know...)
Maybe you can make a come back thanks to anti-vaxxers.
