I think this is the right place to post this poll, third time lucky.
I think after about ten turns the leader should be able to make decisions without polls or quick polls. This will maximize the chance of the right decision being made and stop the populace voting in such an important decision on something they may not fully understand. Also on certain military decisions shouldn't the military guys make that decision so you have the people know what they are doing making the right choices. But if the status quo must remain at least shorten the quick poll time!
