It is a waste of translators' time to translate the SecurePoll admin interface to dozens of languages, which is what most of the voting-related translation requests (including this one) are about. Only a handful of people have access to that interface, and it is quite unlikely that any one of them doesn't understand English. It would be nice if the voter and admin interface of SecurePolls could be split into separate translation groups.
