A Polling order is any order that makes recommendations to the Crown via group meetings and discussion. Potential candidates - who may have been recommended to the order by the members of the populace - will be discussed by the current members in attendance. If enough member agree, they will be formally recommended to the sitting King and Queen to be added to the order.
Note that the King and Queen are not obliged to act on a recommendation - their word is law, after all - although it's fairly rare for them not to. They may also decide to award membership into a polling order without waiting the order's recommendation, but again, this is rare as it can cause conflict.
