Best Telegram bots for Polls & voting
These Telegram bots extend polls and voting beyond the chat's built-in poll button — multi-question surveys, scheduled polls, anonymous voting with exportable results, and voting for large channels and communities.
Simple third-party poll creator: question, options, share to any chat via button, see results. Free and minimal; a fallback when you want a poll bot other than @vote.
Multiple-choice polls that native Telegram polls historically didn't support: create a poll where people can pick more than one option, and share it. Free.

How we chose
We created the same 4 polls in every bot: a single-question poll with 4 answer options, an anonymous poll, a multi-question survey with 3 questions in sequence, and a poll scheduled to close automatically after 24 hours. We checked whether results could be exported, whether voters could change their answer, and whether the free tier limited the number of polls or responses per month.
Polls & voting
How to choose a polling bot
Telegram's own attach-menu poll already covers a single question with a fixed set of options, so a dedicated bot is worth adding only if you need something it doesn't: a multi-question survey, a poll that reopens on a schedule, results exported as a spreadsheet, or voting collected from people outside the chat via a shareable link. Confirm that specific gap before adding a bot for something the native feature already does for free.
Anonymity and result manipulation
"Anonymous" can mean two different things — voters' names are hidden from other participants, or they're hidden from the chat admin too. Read the bot's description carefully if anonymity from the admin matters to you, since many "anonymous" polls still let the group owner see who voted for what. Also check whether the bot blocks one person from voting twice using multiple accounts, since open community votes are an easy target for manipulation without that safeguard.
Free limits
Free tiers typically cap the number of active polls, often 1–5 at a time, or total responses per month rather than the number of questions per poll. If you're running a poll for a large public channel, check the response cap specifically — a free plan built for small group chats can hit its limit halfway through a vote with thousands of channel subscribers.
Frequently asked questions
How is a polling bot different from Telegram's built-in poll feature?
The built-in poll covers one question with answer options for free; bots add what's missing — multi-question surveys, scheduling, exporting results, and collecting votes via a link from outside the chat.
Can the chat admin see who voted for what in an anonymous poll?
It depends on the bot — "anonymous" sometimes means hidden only from other participants, not from the admin, so check the specific bot's description.
Can I collect votes from people who aren't in the chat?
Some bots offer a poll via an external link that doesn't require joining the group, but this feature isn't universal — check for it specifically if your audience is bigger than one chat.
