Voting

Hover your WiiMote cursor over the question to see the two options you will have if you take part in the vote. One will be in pink and the other in green.
Click which every question you want to answer.
The screen will change and your mii will run on to the screen inside a large circle. The two options will be large buttons on either side of the screen, Hold the 'A' and the 'B' button to pick up your mii (just like in the Mii channel) and place him or her on the colour that corresponds to your answer.
Your mii will now stay in that colour and a 'Vote' button appears in the bottom of the screen. You will be asked to confirm that you want to vote and then data will be sent.
You now get the option to predict which answer is likely to get most votes, again pick up your mii and drop them on the answer that you think will be more popular, a 'Predict' button will appear on the screen and you will be asked to confirm that you want to predict this result.
Now you will be returned to the 'Active Polls' or 'World Wide Polls' section depending on which you were in.

There is also a percentage tally at each side of the screen telling you exactly how many percent voted on each option.
All your registered mii voters will be in the centre of the bottom of the screen in the colour of the option they chose.
There is also a button on the bottom right allowing you to view the result by gender so you can see the results just for males or females.

This is another nice addition to the Wii channel line up and some what of a surprise i think to most people as there hasn't been much talk about it.
Will be interesting to see how result pan out and what questions will be added and how often they will be placed on the channel.
Takes a few seconds to use when you are used to it so probably something you would go to before starting up a game.
