We found phpESP to be pretty useful in day-to-day administration of our hostel. We used it for everything from actual voting of council members, to public-survey for deciding mess menu to booking tickets for various hostel events.

In fact a simple SQL-trigger to overwrite the appropriate data-base column would be enough.
