Scientifically research found that Germa editors are not representative for German speaking people but far more environmetal-liberal-leftists than avarage Germans. The poll was even not representative for German editors because only a few voted.

A democratic and representative poll has to be equal, common and private. The poll was not common because not every user entitled to vote was noticed about the poll,

Every poll will be visible at the Autorenportal [1] under "Aktuelles"
(current issues). So everyone can inform himself and decide if he wants
to vote. We decided to have public polls since everyone should be able
to discuss about the arguments and to leave comments. We have a policy
for that. This is our model.
You must be an asshole to claim that we have many sock puppets inside
this votes. It's an open attack against the community.
* User must be logged in
* He must be active for at least two month (poll announcement and
duration time is shorter)
* He must have at least 200 edits inside the article namespace and more
then 50 edits in the last 12 month.
