That way, they'd have to have or create a Google account of their own (outside of your influence) to get it, which takes care of the password thing.

I know the former can password protect areas and have the files in a shared area expire after a certain time. That would allow someone to send an email to the eligible voter list saying "Go here, use this login/password and by the way the files disappear in 48 hours." It's not as secure as if each person has to login with their own ID, but face it, if a voter wants to share the files they can do that after downloading vs just sharing the login info (not that I advocate either action of course). John,
