Rails - May 2011 - Can't figure out how to submit specific data with javascript

I''m unable to figure out how to submit specific data to a Rails
update()
method via the jQuery submit() method. This is the code snippet I''m
working with:


<% form_for(vote, :remote => true) do |f| %>
    <%= check_box_tag "selection", vote.id %>
<% end %>

...

<%= link_to ''Vote Yes'', ballots_path, :onclick =>
"$(''.edit_vote'').submit()" %>
<%= link_to ''Vote No'', ballots_path, :onclick =>
"$(''.edit_vote'').submit()" %>


How do I use the jQuery submit method to submit specific data to the
Vote controller update method? (for example if I press "Vote Yes" then
it submits ":approval => true" so that I can use params[:approval]
to
update the particular vote)

Am I even on the right track?
