The public email addresses are taken from launchpad, but they are fed
into a 3rd party voting system completely unconnected with launchpad:
http://www.cs.cornell.edu/andru/civs.html

The mail would have come:

Subject: Poll: ubuntu-us-ca leadership poll
From: "Philip Ballew (CIVS poll supervisor)" <philipballew at ubuntu.com>
Sender: <andru at cs.cornell.edu>
Reply-To: philipballew at ubuntu.com

And these are key-based to your address for voter tracking, so
everyone has their own ballot, we can't just share a single link in
public.
