Want to instantly know what 25 million people are thinking?
For as little as $6, Facebook Polls let you ask 18-24 year olds what’s hip, ask people in New York who they’re voting for, or even ask “Grey’s Anatomy” fans if they’ll actually watch the new spin-off.

Target your audience.
Get answers only from the people you want. Target your Polls by gender, age, or location. Or target by favorite music, movies, tv shows, books, or interests.
