How do I search for all threads that are polls?

How do I do search for all threads that are polls? I don't see any option in the advanced search utility. Is there any programming-like syntax, wild cards or tags that I can insert into the search textbox to return only polls? If not then I think this would be a feature the site could implement.

Actually there is one option that is fairly effective which is in the advanced search tool:
Search by keyword
Select search in thread title
In the text field enter: Poll:

Works as all polls start with "Poll:" in their title.

Although it returns threads with titles that have the word "poll" in them which aren't actual votable polls. So I still think it would be good if you could find only threads that are polls.
