Bottom line
Cosmotown, at $178.67 for 3 years, beats Namecheap, the registrar with the lowest first year, by $113.87.
.vote is for voting, elections and democratic participation. It's built for one subject, so it isn't a general-purpose choice for unrelated content.
Monolith Registry runs it. It was added to the root zone on 13 February 2014. Unlike most extensions, .vote is restricted. You need a genuine connection to an election or democratic process, and the domain and its content must relate to that process. The registry's 2016 policy also bans holding unused names and using privacy or proxy registration.
An election information site should name its publisher and keep official information separate from independent reporting. A campaign site should make the candidate or organisation behind it clear. A civic project should explain its relationship to voting or democratic participation.
