The iVote iPhone application has been a tremendous success.
We are ecstatic about our rapid growth and diverse user base.
However, as with any popular discussion forum, there are those users that:
*Can’t discuss topics civilly
*Make childish comments
*Use vulgarity
*Use hate speech
*Make useless “first” comments
*Spam or flame discussion topics.
We have begun actively banning iVote users who engage in those activities. The bans are permanent to your phone’s ID.
We ask that you please use iVote in a responsible and civil way. iVote is not a chat room.
We encourage civil disagreement, but obscene, vulgar, sexually-oriented, hateful, threatening, or childish excessive commenting will not be tolerated.
iVote also wants to remind users that the iVote Mobile images and name are trademarked. Please do not use our images on private forums, websites or any medium without our consent.
iVote will be posting a full terms of service shortly to help deal with these issues.
Until then.. please use iVote responsibly

iVote, the first voting and polling system for iPhone users launched on August 20th, 2008.
iPhone users can now voice their opinion on political questions, current events, hot social topics, sports, entertainment and much more.
The application is totally free and has a social networking component built in that allows users to comment on all questions.
The voting results are shown graphically by percentage and by number on a global, national, regional and local level, which makes for fascinating and addictive reading.
iPhone users can also use the “iAsk” button to submit their own question to iVote for possible entry into the iVote application.
Initial reviews have been fantastic for this application. You can download the application and see the reviews by opening iTunes or using this direct link.
