I agree, but I wonder how to implement this. We could get a FAS account
since the voter has to sign in. But I'm not sure if you could trigger
awarding a badge without emitting a fedmsg event from the Elections app
after someone voted (possibly compromising anonymity).
What about people wanting a badge for a specific election and not for another
one (for whatever reason)?
The nuancier system allows the anonymity that is dear to a number of us while
offering the flexibility of letting the user choose when to get a badge or not.
Note also that on nuancier, you don't actually have to vote to get the badge,
how would it work in this situation?
