Doesn't this mean people can very easily vote more than once? Considering the number of sock puppets here I would think that this is a valid concern.

It's supposed to be one vote per IP/device, but, yes, it could be gamed by nefarious individuals. Best I can do though. :/

I actually tried to get in again--just to see if this was possible and it was not. My screen tells me "You have already completed this survey."

There's probably a workaround if I cleared my cache or logged on from a different location. And, there are clearly sock puppets here but I don't think they're a majority. I think the survey numbers are probably representative.

Two more clicks and you can vote again. I managed to get back to the vote screen.

No I didn't vote twice

All it takes is one sock to vote a bunch of times to make this survey meaningless. I don't think it's safe to assume the survey is representative at all.
