Question

Is there an online poll service that allows users to add their own options? To be clear, this is what it should do:

I create the poll by choosing a number of preset options
I send the URL of the poll to potential voters
The voters can select one, possibly many, options and submit their vote
If desired, voters can add their own option and vote for that
After this, new visitors should be able to see and also vote for this new option
At some point (not necessarily after voting), anyone can see the results of the poll, as a count or percentage

There are plenty available but none I've seen let users add their own options.

This will be intended for a rather small community so I'm not so concerned about preventing abuse (e.g. vote fraud, adding bogus/offensive options).

If there is a tool that isn't specifically built for polls but do allow this functionality, that would be good too.

Explanation / Answer

I recently created a tool that does exactly this. http://www.rkursem.com/poll/

Here, you enter the following:

Question you want to have a poll on.
Whether the respondents can select one or multiple answers.
Whether the respondents can choose from a fixed list or enter additional answers, which future users can then choose among or add another answer.
A list of initial answers, which can be empty if you want completely open-ended answers.

As creator of the poll, you get an email with link to administration/view of answers and a link to send to your potential respondents. The tool allows the administrator to hide unwanted answers. There is no need for creating an account.

Users can see the distribution as a bar-chart when he/she has responded.
