Thunderbird does not provide any easy way to do it. People who receive voting buttons can only use them by disabling their privacy protection. The buttons only work if you have a server running to receive the votes, and if voters are online when they vote. But if the people who will be voting do not care about their privacy and are always online, and you have a suitable server, then you can use Thunderbird 2 to send the buttons. It is usually better to ask voters to vote on a web page, and use e-mail to send a link to the page.
You can make a request in bugzilla for this feature, but as this would require someone to develop in their own time I cannot say whether it would be considered or not nor how long it would take to do. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/index.cgi?
