Add onsubmit event in for html form attribute as following

<form method="POST" id="myform" class="myform" onsubmit="return false" >

You can manage above thing by jQuery also, just need to modify your javascript code something like this.

$("#myform").on('submit', function (event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    $.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: 'polldemo1.php',
        data: $("#myform").serialize(),
        success: function (data, status) {
            //do whatever you want to do
        },
        error: function (err) {
            //do wahtever you want to do
        }
    });
});
//OR
$("#myform").on('submit', function (event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    submitForm();
});

Also you don’t need to keep any html attribute in you php script. Remove all html tags from that script.
