Does anyone here know of such tool OR has a better idea to organize an anonymous online vote/poll?
it is possible to do this kind of pseudo-anonymous (aka nameless) voting with
https://github.com/OpenSlides/OpenSlides
(Disclosure: My company Intevation is the main driver of the Free Software product OpenSlides and also offers commercial hosting and support for it.)
Check out the https://demo.openslides.org (will be in Englisch if your Browser is set to English, except for a few texts). If - for instance - you go to the "Motions", select a motion until you are in the details view for it. You can "+ New Vote". In the upcoming dialog, you can select the voting type and the group that is elegible to vote. Delegates have their personal account with their name to follow the assembly. Now you have two possibilities:
a) just use the "non-nominal" vote and trust the security of the system. (you'll get a warning that this cannot fully guarantee that this is anonymous, we'll still work on the best phrasings for this.)
b) You hand out an number of pseudo accounts per random selection as a second account to all of your delegates. Assign it to a new group, call it something like "delegates-for-voting". Then you do a "nominal" vote with the new group, publish it, so that all can check. And if the vote is accepted, you can make a printout and later delete the votes with the list of pseudonyms from the online system.
Okay, this was the quick run-through. If you have questions, we've also send you a personal mail in German. :)
Best Regards, Bernhard
