Comment(by nickm):

 Thanks for catching that.  In that case, what if we made fetching v2 votes
 a config option, defaulting to except for authorities, and made it so that
 that if you _do_ fetch v2 votes, you always do so from authorities?

 Also, anything that currently depends on getting v2 votes really needs to
 migrate away from them.  There are not so many v2 authorities left, and
 we're hoping to remove them entirely once we can get proposal 147
 implemented.

 Thoughts?
