Poll Maubot

A plugin for maubot that creates a poll in a riot room and allows users to vote

Usage

'!poll new "Question" "Choice1" "Choice2" "Choice3"' - Creates a new poll with given (at least 1) choices

The user can now also create polls with line-breaks:

!poll new What is my question?
Choice1
Choice2
Choice3

'!poll results' - Displays the results from the poll

'!poll close' - Ends the poll

Users vote by adding the matching emoji to the poll (i.e. if the first choice has a :thumbsup: then in order to pick that choice the user has to react with :thumbsup:)
