Reported in general support: a poll added to a Squawk post by accident could not be removed.

Cause

Removing a poll only sets pollClosing. The poll is cleared in onAnimationEnd once sq-poll-out finishes. Under prefers-reduced-motion: reduce the composer sets .sq-poll { animation: none !important }, so that event never fires and the poll stays. Chromium reports reduced motion when Windows "Animation effects" is off, which the "Adjust for best performance" preset also turns off.

The poll draft lives in session state (birdy:composerPoll), so it also came back every time the composer was reopened, until the UI reloaded.

Fix

togglePoll clears the poll straight away when reduced motion is on, the same way the admin panel's sheets close (admin/ui.tsx). Otherwise the fold-out animation plays as before.

No other component pairs a reduced-motion animation: none with state that waits on onAnimationEnd.

Verified

Composer mounted from the dev server, with reduced motion emulated:

	before	after
X removes the poll (reduced motion)	no	yes, instantly
Toolbar poll button removes it (reduced motion)	no	yes
Poll gone after Cancel and reopen (reduced motion)	no	yes
X with normal motion	animates out	animates out

Tested in game with Windows Animation effects on and off.
