# Create a poll from your LinkedIn Page

By HeyMark · Updated October 19, 2026

Before opening LinkedIn, decide how you will use the answers. They might help you choose the topic for your next workshop. Prepare the question and options in a document, then check that you can access the Page admin view as a super admin. This gives you a chance to review your wording before creating the poll.

## Prepare the question and options

LinkedIn limits questions to 140 characters and each option to 30. The desktop flow allows two to four options. Choose answers that are distinct from one another, then check spelling and audience before posting. The default duration is one week, but you can choose another duration from the menu.

For example, if you prepare gardening workshops, you could ask, “Which topic would help you most this month?” and offer “Watering,” “Light,” “Repotting,” and “Pests.” Each option fits the limit, and the answers help you choose a specific topic.

## Create the poll from your Page

1. On desktop, open LinkedIn and switch to your Page admin view. Start a post.
2. In the composer, select **More**, then **Create a poll**.
3. Enter the question and add two to four options. Check the character limits before continuing.
4. Select the duration from the dropdown. If you keep the default, the poll runs for one week.
5. Select **Done**. On the next step, you can add text around the poll and review who can see it.
6. Before posting, confirm you are posting as the right Page and that the question, options, audience, and duration match your plan. Then select **Post**.

## Check the result and vote privacy

Open the Page post and confirm that the question and options are correct. LinkedIn says Page admins can see how each person voted. Voters can see aggregate percentages after voting, and people who can view the post can see them once the poll closes. Do not ask for sensitive information in a poll.

After creation, a poll cannot be edited or reopened after it closes. If you find an error, LinkedIn allows you to delete the poll; decide whether a new post is appropriate. [LinkedIn’s poll creation help](https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a522948/create-linkedin-polls) documents the desktop flow, and its [official FAQ](https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a527270/linkedin-polls-faq?lang=en) covers roles, privacy, and limits. This guide covers desktop; the mobile app has its own flow and is outside this page’s scope.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can you edit a LinkedIn poll after posting it?

You cannot edit a poll after it is created. If you find an error, you can delete it and post another. The new poll starts without the previous poll's votes.

### Who can see how each person voted?

For a poll posted by a LinkedIn Page, admins of that Page can see individual votes. Other viewers see aggregate results according to their access and whether they have voted or the poll has closed.
