POTN book poll closing confusion

Went to look at the transportation voting and noticed contradicting times. Any one care to clarify this ?



Remember only vote for your favorite 10 images.Voting Ends 2000 CST, 15 January, 2009

This poll will close on 16th of January 2009 (Fri) at 00:38

That's weird. I didn't see that before. Voting ends today.

There is a good reason for that. The Polls will be closed mannually. When you set a poll up to expire in 10 days it will expire exactly in 10 days. So the polls that were created prior to 2200 CTS on the creation dates had to be extended one day or they would have closed as early as 0905.

But don't fret they all will close at 2200 CST tonight.
