This is a great question! Often trial judges instruct the jurors to listen to each other's views, but there's no legal requirement that they do so. The reason it's necessary is that a jury verdict must be unanimous, and that often means that the jurors must either compromise or persuade some of the panel to change their minds in order to reach a verdict. If the jurors simply did a single vote with no discussion, very few trials would result in a verdict-- it's almost unheard of for all 12 (or even 6) to agree on the first ballot.
