 * Hi ! Nice plugin I recommand !
 * Just a small question, I want to dynamically display my polls, on some pages,
   so I tried to get the poll ID ($val is a metabox of the parent page. $val does
   return number 2, and my poll is displayed.
 * `<li><?php democracy_poll( '<?php echo $val; ?>' ); ?></li>`
 * However, since I create a second poll, my polls are displayed randomly on my 
   pages, despite of the poll ID ($val) is specified … Maybe something related to
   the democracy_poll function ?

 * You must send the var, not echo it 🙂
 * Do it like this:
 * `<li><?php democracy_poll( $val ); ?></li>`
