[OSM-talk] Vote cheating?

Hi everyone I've remarked that there are wiki accounts that were only used to participate in one proposed feature vote (or in multiple votes by the same user). How can we be sure that these are different users and not multiple wiki accounts of the same user for cheating in a vote?
