You were asked – TMP link Who is your favorite historical figure who attained fame at the rank of colonel? And in the final round of voting: 25% said "Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain" 21% (TIE) said "James Stewart" OR "Theodore Roosevelt"

Great choice

Nah, didn't know about the pre-poll discussion. Who makes the decisions about who goes in the polls?
John the OFM	20 Nov 2020 4:52 p.m. PST
The Editor will only include in a poll the choices that were proposed in the pre-poll discussion. Why would he do otherwise?
