me too. This is a nightmare. Anyone please tell us how to fix this.
I had the same problem. I think, this is because Polldaddy is redeclaring the same function, polldaddy_link(), that Jetpack has already declared. I deleted Polldaday plugin and my polls are working fine. If you don’t like to delete Polldaddy plugin, just deactivate your Jetpack plugin and re install it. You can’t run both now

Same issue on WPMS 3.4.1 with JetPack network activated, gone back to 2.0.13 for now.

The problem now is I wanted to use both JetPack and Polldaddy plugins. I’m not sure how polls work with JetPack only because I don’t see a way to add a poll to my new posts anymore now that I deleted Polldaddy. Also is it just me here or is there really no poll configuration in JetPack? If it isn’t there then I don’t see any reason to declare the function in JetPack. They should have just let Polldaddy alone taking care of it, or just merge it completely into JetPack.. I guess I’ll just use the older version 2.0.13 again.
PollDaddy and Jetpack (latest and greatest) are running fine for me together on two sites.
What other plugins are you using?
Also getting a fatal error message on any plugin I try to activate. Fresh install of the latest version.
My site failed to load just after updating the polldaddy plugin which appears to have triggered the following PHP Fatal Error:
[12-Jul-2012 16:40:34 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_current_user() in /var/www/vhosts/mydomainname/httpdocs/wp/wp-includes/capabilities.php on line 1373
Removing the plugin folder allowed the site to load. I’m running WP 3.4.1 in multisite mode with numerous plugins including JetPack. It would take a while to determine which plugin was in conflict with PollDaddy, but it seems a recent change in polldaddy has caused the problem. Six plugins were updated on my site today at the same time when the problem occurred. I had to remove all six not knowing which was triggering the fatal error. I added each one back in one by one to conclude that PollDaddy was the culprit.
I guess I could remove the other five recently updated plugins to see if the site will run with just polldaddy, but seeing the other messages here, it looks like the error is within polldaddy.
The other five plugins updated at the same time are:
network-plugin-auditor
custom-post-type-ui
blog templates
google document embedder
disqus comment system
The other error I got that only appears once is:
PHP Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required ‘/var/www/vhosts/mydomainname/httpdocs/wp/wp-content/plugins/polldaddy/ajax.php’ (include_path=’.:’) in /var/www/vhosts/mydomainname/httpdocs/wp/wp-content/plugins/polldaddy/polldaddy.php on line 4977
BTW, did anyone else notice that Polldaddy is a large plugin. The folder is 50 MB on my server. The PO files take up a lot of space.
Reverted back to the previous version of PollDaddy (2.0.13) for the time being appears to work.
I did not expect to see this happen with an AutoMattic sponsored plugin.

I discovered somewhat a solution to this problem, which is to delete both Polldaddy and Jetpack first, then reinstall Polldaddy and followed by JetPack.
Sorry about that, we’re going to get a new release out today fixing this.
