Just wondering how this is different from what we have already? For example, you can see who has voted in this poll by clicking on the votes links https://xenforo.com/community/threads/test-of-poll-function.173666/

It's different because it's publically viewed by everyone. I'm suggesting that even if this isn't checked...
...there should be a general moderator permission to view the results anyway.

Could be. But I think wrapping it as separate permission would be best so that you don't give everything to the moderator (or whomever), just the poll results privacy override.

Good idea!
Interestingly it no longer seems to tell a user when voting if it is a private poll or not (it used to in XF1). I don't know if this is by design or an oversight?

Yes, but that's all users. Not selective few.
I suggest different levels of privacy for different user groups. One can be a mod in Forum A and another in Forum B (think social groups). Mod A shouldn't see Mod Bs votes in my opinion.

Ah apologies, it's fine on my site too, which also shows this. I thought it said something about votes being anonymous/private when "Display votes publicly" was unticked.

Here is my add-on that allows to view results for such polls (paid):
[OzzModz] View Anonymous Poll Votes
Allows to view anonymous poll (without "display votes publicly" option set) response voters to users with permission (can be set for specific nodes)
