Description

What is going wrong? What did you observe?

If you are allowing maybe votes and limit the yes votes to 1, as voter you can:

  • give only one vote if you check one box with a yes vote,
  • give unlimited maybe votes and one yes vote, if you set the yes vote last

Add a screenshot of the misbehavior

How should it work?

Either there should be the option

  • to give only one vote total
  • give one yes vote and unlimited maybe votes; even if you don't set them last
  • to configure separate limits for maybe votes.
