Please stop making new posts of OLD polls.

There are always so many posts that have a headline that says..."New poll shows..."
You click on it and it is nowhere near being new....it is often at least 48-72 hours old.
A new poll is something that has been released in the last 24 hours.
Now, if you are quoting the "most recent" poll, just say that in your headline.
But, a poll that was released on Friday is not "new" on a Monday.
