This poll is messed up, because the lowest choice is under 30 million.  6 out of 8 Mario Karts have sold under 30 million.  If you count the Wii U and Switch SKU's of Mario Kart 8 as separate releases, then 7 out of 9 Mario Karts have sold under 30 million.  This poll is really presumptuous in making under 30 million the throwaway option.

Those other Mario Karts released when the series was nowhere near as huge and popular as it is now.

Coming off MK8D selling 67 million (probably more like 75 million by the time it stops selling, if not 80) options for "under 20" or "under 10" just seemed highly unlikely and probably just troll bait.

So far, only like 5% of votes are for under 30, so it seems lower options weren't needed.

False.  Mario Kart Wii sold 37M and then the Wii U SKU sold 8M.  It's popularity on the Wii didn't stop it from selling poorly on the Wii U.  Mario Kart 7 on the 3DS also sold less than Mario Kart DS.

Mario Kart sales very a lot.  Your presumption that it will sell over 30 million seems to be based on the last data point.  It might sell like that again or it might not.  It's not trolling to give options based on other past data points.
