Polling enables the presenter to conduct interactive question-and-answer sessions. When the presenter conducts a poll, all participants are presented with a question and possible answers. Each participant chooses the best answer and clicks Submit. Poll results are gathered in real-time and displayed to the presenter, who can share results with all participants.

The presenter does not have to start the conference to create poll questions.
