Dunno...

Why aren't you asking the database what went wrong? :-)

mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

Actually, you'd be better off to use:

mysql_query($query) or error_log(mysql_error());

and then check your HTTP error logs, assuming your ISP provides them.

You can leave this error-checking code in there, and always leave a trail
for yourself of what went wrong when where.  Keeping or die() on a
production web-site is a security risk.

Oh, actually, now that I re-read the post, I do know what's wrong in this
case:

update poll_options set VOTES = votes + 1
                        ^^^^^^^
