The signin with "your openid" does not seem to work when rendered on ie in a windows mobile 6 phone.
There are apparently half a billion windows mobile phone: increasingly many have data plans. It may be worth testing the site.
Rather than go to a pc to vote, a member might want to use his/her myopenid on the phone handset's browser, which can also authenticate the claimant as being in control of the handset for a particular e164 address.
The only action required: make the sure the openid consumer site works on phone browsers of the major platforms.
I can ask our pda/phone-expert webmaster to debug the html/javascript and mae recommendations, if someone else with website change control power offers to actually apply the suggested fixes.
-----
As long as it all occurs in a 6s attention span, I can see users receiving phone html email asking for vote casting, selecting vote option from site, and auto invoking their personal openid link specialised with users pre-registered myopenid, which within 4s calls back phone asking to press # key. As vote is cast (6s) uers receives confirmation of vote being cast.
That would usable. Same as webmails voting stuff already does, but does it better: open and uses phone handset and delivers the e164 assurance. I suspect users would tolerate limited sponsored voting page flash ads, which pay for the call backs etc.
