I thought anime in general has more male viewers than female ones, so I find it hard to believe that a character poll has a predominantly female audience.

Also, why do you assume that men have to like female characters more by default. We are talking about fictional characters here, not love interests. Usually a favorite character is someone you can identify with and admire - hence for male viewers it should be easier to identify with male characters.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to start a fight here - just trying to better understand the reasons the fan base likes certain characters.
