No, there are means to do online voting that do not have link the information together. It's possible to use forms of cryptography, etc to handle the voting process to know if you've voted to stop multiple votes. You can also verify the vote hasn't been tampered with and the actual vote "contents" itself can be used separately.
There's a difference between the authentication process and the encryption/protection of the information being collected.
