In English the word 'runtime' has a very specific meaning associated with an application runtime. This is very likely to cause confusion in the poll UI.

The proper term to use here for the length of time the poll will be live should be 'Duration' .

Tested patch in Comment #6 - works for me, changed form field title to Poll Duration.

I do think help text should be changed also... as above in comment #2

change text: "The number of seconds after creation during which the poll is active."

to: "After this period, the poll will be closed automatically."
