Abstract

A system and a method for voting with a unique one-time token by an audience member, which is fully automated. The token is preferably usable only within a predetermined lifespan, such that the time period for collecting the data is predefined. If the audience is to be allowed to submit more than one preference, or to have more than one "vote", preferably a plurality of tokens are provided to the audience member. According to one embodiment, such a plurality of tokens are all preferably of equal weight, or generic. Alternatively, such tokens may optionally and preferably be classified, in which a first token is for voting for a first preference, a second token is for voting for a second preference, and so forth.
