Extension:SecurePoll

The SecurePoll extension is a special page extension for elections, polls and surveys. It is used for Wikimedia Foundation Board elections and arbitration committee elections, and was used for the Wikimedia license transition vote among other things.

Installation
You will also need to assign the new 'securepoll-create-poll' user right to some user group. To assign this right to administrators, add the following to your LocalSettings.php: $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['securepoll-create-poll'] = true; This allows all admins to create a poll, but it does not allow all admins to administer a particular poll (including editing a poll, viewing user data, etc.). Individual admins for a particular poll are defined when creating or editing a poll. Only members of the  group may administer a poll. To create this group, add the following to your LocalSettings.php: $wgGroupPermissions['electionadmin'] = []; Then assign a particular user to the  group via Special:UserRights. Note that election admins can see voter data, so only trusted users should be assigned to this group. If they are removed from the group, they will no longer be able to administer any elections.
