Choose Block quote icon. Use a different emoji for each option.When you send the message to the group, participants can respond with the corresponding emoji to produce results.Adding each of the corresponding emojis yourself makes it easier for responders, as they only need to click the one they agree with. Polls are a great way to do anything in Slack from quickly getting feedback about an idea to deciding where to go for lunch.

Lifewire/Adam Doud Press Shift+Enter if you're on a Windows PC or Shift+Return if you're on a Mac to go to a new line (without sending the message.)

Enter each response, pressing Shift&#43;Enter/Return to move to the next line without sending the message. Once your poll is ready to go, press Enter/Return to send your poll to the group. Users will respond to the poll using the emoji you listed in your choices, and those emoji counts will be easy to track.

That&#39;s all you need to do to set up your poll using emojis. There is one last set of steps we recommend adding on if you want to make it easier for people to vote. <h2> How to Add Reactions for Easy Voting </h2> Users who want to respond to your poll could go search out the emoji you listed in your poll, but you run the risk of them choosing something completely different if you leave it up to them.

Instead, you can add reactions to your poll so voters only need to click the icon that&#39;s already there. If you add reactions to your emoji poll, remember to reduce the reaction counts by one when you&#39;re tallying votes to account for the one reaction that you placed for each emoji. Point your mouse at your poll, and click Add reaction in the right corner.

Once you&#39;re done, click the arrow in the upper left corner to exit the message. Adding the emojis makes it possible for others to &#34;vote&#34; by clicking on the emojis themselves, rather than having to find the emojis in their own list. This kind of poll will give you almost immediate feedback on whatever question you have.
