That is now fixed for me. Let me ask others.

I can confirm clicking the "Vote here" link on https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Universal_Code_of_Conduct/Coordinating_Committee/Election/2024 (and the followup link "Go to the voting server") does not trigger an exception anymore here. Thanks!

I tentatively close this then! Reopen if it persists, I couldn't spot any other bugs for now.
