Description RockMFR 2009-04-14 00:07:18 UTC 
When attempting to vote in the latest poll with cookies disabled, the following message is displayed:

"No account data received. In order to vote in this election you must visit Special:SecurePoll at your home wiki. It will verify that your account has the proper qualifications to vote and then transfer you here with that account information attached. You can not vote at this page directly."

Neither the spi-inc.org site itself nor the SecurePoll page on Wikipedia gives any indication that cookies need to be enabled in order to vote. Either the page on Wikipedia or the page on spc-inc.org (or both) should say that cookies need to be enabled.

(This is being filed under BoardVote since SecurePoll is not in the list yet.)

This was fixed locally on spi-inc.org.
