If it is going to be used for research please consider having Fedora do some of it themselves. There are a lot of questions that one can think of that would be interesting to know the answers to. Which subsets of Fedora, identifiable subgroups, are voting in what proportions? Would the results be any different with a less cumbersome voting method? Heck, even keeping the actual voting data confidential but providing a voluntary survey that voters could fill out at the same time might be able to yield some information that could be very useful to future thinking about elections. That might be able to capture relevant information in the same way exit polls do now in other contexts.
