It appears that when IMDb updated their Home page (http://www.imdb.com/?ref_=nv_home), that the IMDb Poll widget was unintentionally removed. Typically the widget is close to the bottom of the page. Since this brings traffic to the IMDb poll, it would be helpful to restore this widget as soon as practical.

Thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter.

Based upon the Internet Archive, it appears that the last time the IMDb Poll widget appeared on the IMDb Home page (http://www.imdb.com/?ref_=nv_home) was between September 16, 2014 1:57:04 and 06:20:27.

I hope that specifying a specific time frame will assist the IMDb technical staff identify the root cause of the problem. If I recall correctly, the last time this happened, someone used an older version of the IMDb Home page create prior to when the IMDb Poll widget was included.

Hi Dan -

Looking at the homepage now, I see that the Poll widget is back.  Can you take a look and let me know if you can see it?

Hi Michelle,

Thank you very much for your quick attention to this matter and your highly profession attitude.
The IMDb Poll widget is back on the IMDb Home Page (http://www.imdb.com/?ref_=nv_home). This is what I saw as of a few minutes ago.
