API Questions?

Howdy folks! I have a few questions about the Loomio API - if this isn't the right place, please let me know and I'll move it!
I'm a member of another group that uses Loomio to make decisions. Currently our leadership is manually text messaging members reminders to vote on proposals, and I was hoping to use Python, Twilio, and the Loomio API to automate this.
I've taken a look at the API documentation (https://help.loomio.org/en/dev_manual/using_the_api) and the rake routes (https://hackmd.loomio.io/s/HJmuX5IWl#), and see the proposals has a non_voters_count property. Is there any way I can access a list of members that have voted?
As a side note, I've also registered my python script (as described here 'https://github.com/loomio/loomio/pull/2980', 'https://github.com/loomio/loomio-oauth-sample'), but can only communicate with the API when I add my cookies to the pyoauth module.
Thank you!

Now that I'm home, I've read the code, it already uses normal user auth + setting cookies. So I expect it will just work. Happy to help if it does not, but I really expect it will be fine.
Thank goodness!

Ah, relief! That's great news. Thank you for your help, yet again. 🤗

It's a pleasure to see Loomio being used and support the users!
Great that removing the other auth stuff was the right move/had no cost, also cool to see an API client in the wild, I'll link to it from Loomio Help

Hmmm, okay. Not sure how to do that off the bat. If you have any leads for what to do exactly I'd be grateful. Otherwise, we will have a crack at it with the guys who are taking over this weekend.
