Ranked choice polls
Allow streamers to make a poll ranked-choice, allowing viewers to order the options instead of for one option. This not only will allow streamer to better gauge viewer opinions, but can also allows viewers to not be so split when they don't actually feel split.
Commands still work, a new command for polling with this can be made. For voting, instead of /vote 3, you can do /vote 3 1 2 4.
Boosting votes also works as it does now.

I am thinking of creating my own stream extension / integration that implements this, but it would be awesome if it were natively supported.
Supporting that within the UI itself on mobile would also be really awesome.
I would prefer this not only for the tie-breaking fashion, but also to encourage user engagement. By including a fairer decision making mechanism, it would increase the user engagement within many already small communities, and prevent feelings of disappointment when decisions were already decided by such a small margin.
Since preferential voting often also has many rounds of counting that happens behind the scenes, you could also configure some interesting and suspenseful moments if you could have some integrated graphics.
