Web Poll

Secure Voting

The secure voting system is a way of guaranteeing that no users are able to cheat on your poll and vote multiple times. The trade-off is that only individuals you specify in advance will be able to vote.

To use secure voting you need to choose between Email and Login based security.

Email: You can specify a list of email addresses that will recieve an invitation message. Each invitation will have a unique link with a special code key. When the user clicks on the link in their email their key will expire and cannot be used again. No one without a valid key will be able to vote.

Login: You can specify a set of login/passwords, or have the system generate them for you. Each login is good for a single vote. No user without a login will be able to vote.

Both: Users who recieve the email will be able to vote as above, anybody else accessing the poll will be prompted for a password as per login security.
