I think proxy voting is a technical term with a totally different meaning (a proxy is someone who casts a vote on behalf of someone who is absent but otherwise eligible for voting; this may come with or without a mandate to vote in a particular way). One way to avoid double-voting is to associate each vote with an identity from an identity provider such as Facebook. This may not be what you want, though. Secure online voting is really quite hard, particularly if you want anonymity, secrecy, resistance to coercion, prevention of double-voting, and an audit trail. -- Too many emails?
