1) If you are using select tag with multiple attribute, Use tag name as name="ristrict[]".

2) And you can get selected options with $_POST['ristrict']

3) $_POST['ristrict'] is array that contains selected options.

Here is the below complete code

<label for="rank_restriction">Rank Restriction</label>
<select  class="chosen-select" multiple="multiple" id="ristrict" name="ristrict[]">
    <?php foreach ($poll['rankname'] as $rank) 
    {?>
        <option value="<?php echo $rank; ?>"><?php echo $rank; ?></option>
    <?php 
    } ?>
</select>

4) You can get selected options like this

$ristricts = $_POST['ristrict'];
foreach($ristricts as $ristrict)
{
    //Your logic here....
}
