And would be extremely open to fraud. They don’t want folks to spam the servers, which would results in gazillions of votes.

Oh, I know about voter fraud…back in 2000 when the Republican primaries were just getting started, I voted for Pat Buchanan 37,000 times in two hours on a CBS news poll (it was a dumb poll, and Bush was leading Gore by 3%…Buchanan was at about 2% total, and I bumped him up to 17% of the overall vote…sadly, CBS pulled the poll from their website and it never made the nightly news). And I did it with only 25 virtual users.

Session IDs and IP logging would stop that from happening.
