May I recommend 'approval voting' as an alternative? It doesn't require ordering, has nice theoretial properties, and is dead simple to implement. everyone just votes yes on the ones they approve of, you add up the numbers and the highest one wins. Voting yes on everything doesn't help since then all your votes cancel out.
That's similar to what I suggested. I also think it is superior to sorting both in usage and in evaluation.
