Description
We started to use the poll but somehow we miss an easy to understand poll results view, for example a pie chart.
Probably a Pie chart could be an easy way to overview the entire poll in a small screen, too, while it is easy to read and understand for everybody.
Here you can see an example, just to show my idea:

The answers could be numbered and the Legend could contains the following:
colored box, # of the option, votes of this option, percentage
Example (sketch):

As we use long options sometimes, the Legend should contains only the serial number (id) of the option, maybe the text of the option could appear in a tooltip when the mouse pointer is on the option.
What do you think?

Research direction
Start by locating the poll results view and the entry point that renders its current overview. Use the linked pie-chart and legend sketches as the requirements; the work is done when results have a readable pie-chart overview with numbered options, vote counts, percentages, and the requested handling for long option text.
