    Google Slides is rolling out a UI update for some users that breaks Google Slides poll insert. We are actively working on a patch to support both versions of the UI. As a workaround, you can try one of the following: • Create a new browser profile and sign in with your Poll Everywhere-associated email address, or • Sign in to an alternative Google account and use that to insert your slides
