Hi :) My guess is that people wanting to vote for AOO or OOo just vote for LO because they are about the same really.
However, the reason AOO is missing is that Mac users didn't propose it or register it for the poll. Perhaps they see AOO as being too old now or unfashionable or perhaps they just decided that LibreOffice was close enough.
