I believe there might be a problem with user permissions when it comes to polls in threads that they have created.

I had a poll in the thread that own in the NSC sub forum, but hadn't been able to delete it after it was closed due to the "edit" options not giving an option to delete the poll (see screenshot below).

Having checked with Veronika (one of the NSC mods) she confirmed that on the thread she uses for NSC Spin-off polls, she is able to delete the old polls and replace them with new ones simply by choosing the relevant options in the "edit" part of the poll. But I don't have this option.

Is this functionality to delete and create new polls only available to Mods and higher or should all users have the option to delete old polls and add new ones?

Yeah, can an admin or someone high up please try and review the settings for the polls, as Veronika who is NSC mod was able to delete the poll from my thread, but surely if I own the thread, I should also be able to do this?
