List who voted for an option in a poll

Gonna be weird to explain.
You know how when you view polls, you just see the number of votes each option got? Well I'd like to be able to see WHO voted for what on a seperate page.
So, you'd click something saying "See voters!" Or something, and you'd see the list of users who voted for Option A, and for Option B, and so on.
This way things like people getting on their 5 alts to vote for the option they want wouldn't work as well anymore.
Of course some votings may want to be kept anonymous, so the poll creator can have the option whether or not to have this available on the poll.
If they choose not to use it, they simply click/unclick so, and that poll would be just like the ones we currently have.
Just a thought that could be explained better but yeah I'd like this.

If this is implemented, there should be a "Vote anonymously" option for voters, not the poll creator.

I can just see the scenario of users being made fun of for their voting choices. >_>

Yeah. People vote and don't leave comments at times. Sometimes its probably because they want to express their opinions in a way where they don't have to worry about people flaming them for it.

This is fine too. And if they get flamed for their choices, can we not just report the flamers?

I see this causing more problems than solutions. In addition to the previous observations, it may cause peer pressure to tilt votes in a specific direction without someone reading the comments and thoughts.

I've seen this before. It would only show you who voted if you vote don the poll itself and had an account. Otherwise, you would just see the number of people that voted for the different options. It never really created much in the way of flaming or anything as far as I saw. In fact, not too many people seemed to care.

I think that this would be a good idea, with the option to vote annonymously. Sometimes I wonder who votes, It's good to see.
If people flame then they should be punished, If there's peer pressure then well we should be mature enough to deal with it by now.

Sometimes I don't want people to know what I am voting for though. :I

Nah, isn't anonimity used in polls to get less biased votes? Same with withholding the results until after the person votes.
