Most of the other 50-60 frequent posters here get to vote early and often. Most of the 30,000 or whatever subscribers *probably* get to vote early and often. The vast majority of the half a billion people online get their votes done via DHCP'ed proxy by their ISP, early and often. Anybody who's ever had to work a help desk and explain to a Windows user which IP goes in the nameserver and which IP goes in the default gateway knows that letting the users vote early and often is a guaranteed operational nightmare. That nightmare is why DHCP exists. ;)
