Page F30 reader poll on changing Kazakhstan's name

The poll ended a while ago and I'm taking it down now so here are the results for posterity. Kazakhstan has won against the proposed Kazak Yeli with a convincing yet not entirely overwhelming 60%.

Since the poll went up I haven't seen any more news on the issue so it doesn't look to be too high a priority for Nazarbayev to float this name change in the media and get the idea circulating.
