Currently old vote in Special:ecurePoll/list use #666 as color, which is kind of hard to distinguish from valid(latest) vote. Propose to change it to #AAA - same as closed election - for a better appearance.

[mediawiki/extensions/SecurePoll@master] Color adjustment for old vote

#AAAAAA unfortunately fails the WCAG contrast test: https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=AAAAAA&bcolor=FFFFFF
Perhaps there could be some other colour, or another way to differentiate these older votes (italic text perhaps)

Something like #EB000 with a strikeout may work

There exist two CSS classes called securepoll-old-vote and securepoll-struck-vote. I thought the red color would be more acceptable for the striked vote instead of the old previous vote, as red color normally indicate something wrong happened. I disagree with using italic too much, some scripts (CJK or something else) don't use italic.
Another thing is the delete line for stuck vote is a little bit thin, and it would be better if text-decoration-thickness: from-font; rule is added to class securepoll-struck-vote.

[mediawiki/extensions/SecurePoll@master] SecurePoll: Changing struck and thrown out colours

My proposal (the patch above) looks like this. Thrown out votes are struck-through, and struck votes are red:

As a color-blind person, I can't easily distinguish the red color in the proposal by @jrbs, and I'm a bit confused. It looks to me like the color of the text for JSutherland in that example is different from that for ClydeFranklin - but perhaps just because the background is different? What does the background signify? If the red color and the strikethru indications are redundant with each other, it's probably ok.
Thanks.
