How do I vote on polls?

A lot of threads have polls on them and obviously, votes as well.
But I can't vote.
There's no button or option or anything that I can vote on.
Just the line, and other people's votes.
So my question to you is, how do I vote on polls?

The trolls who live to do things like that.

[quote=Hlaf]Why did they make polls like this?[/quote]

A lot of the restrictions on new accounts are to prevent anyone from making a new account just to spam things like adult links or keyloggers, or to like their own threads or as in this case to vote up things in polls they're trying to skew for whatever reason. The restrictions also apply to auctions, where there's been trouble with people making new accounts to screw with peoples' auctions by bidding them up and then not going through with the trade, or leaving false feedback to mess with someone.

It's too bad new users have to be restricted like that, but once again it's why we can't have nice things.

^^ But when you're able to vote, you click the text of the thing you want to vote on.
