This causes an error when printing logs: line 22 in slack-poll.py

Is this also what causes a 500 error when questions contain apostrophes, or is that a new issue?

Repro: /poll create What’s up? options Yes | No

Yep, I'm pretty sure that's why. It was getting escaped to: /poll create What\u344s up? options Yes | No Or whatever the unicode code is for the apostrophe. Should be a pretty easy fix.
