MB poll: Majority thinks Brotherhood is moderate

I came across this unusual poll on the Muslim Brotherhood's English-language website:

Mbpoll

Obviously this is not representative of anything, but I find it interesting that the MB would ask this question on its own site, which obviously is not only read by fans since over 31% of respondents think the MB are either extremists, extremists pretending to be moderates, or terrorists. I voted "unclear," which seems to be the majority opinion of those who don't view it as moderate. Incidentally, I don't see any polls on the Arabic website.
