After the voting is closed, they audit to eliminate duplicate votes.
Inorder to cast your vote more than once, it is not just the email address,
you need to have multiple work phone numbers too..  I guess they are trying
their best to eliminate duplicate votes in their final audit.

And yes, there might be a certain amount of manipulation. Just imagine, all
IBM employees are asked to vote for IBM products, they will certainly out
number others.
