It looks like only Ben Cotton got this badge: https://badges.fedoraproject.org/badge/i-voted%3A-fedora-36

I think the way the voting badges work is that they're manually awarded after the election is done, to avoid a theoretical timestamp-based de-anonymization attack on the votes. And @bcotton may be planning to do that ... later this week? @bcotton can confirm or deny. :)

The one I got on November 26 was: https://badges.fedoraproject.org/badge/i-voted%3A-fedora-35

As usual it was linked in the pop-up once you prepare your vote or after
validating/casting your ballot (ie: you don't need to actually vote to get it,
you can just make a first selection, get you badge and not confirm that
selection)

There are above 200 people who were awarded the badge. So I think this is just a single case.

I got it myself as well.

That's correct. I accidentally created the badge for the F36 elections, so when I voted as soon as elections opened, I realized that I used the wrong version and fixed it before anyone else could get it.

Nope. It's done based on clicking the link to claim your badge in the elections app. I have no way of telling who voted. Did you click the claim link when you voted?

So it looks like this worked as expected -- unless @maxamillion did click on the claim link, otherwise something weird happened.
