Ok I got it now :) finally....
<cfquery name="commitVotes" datasource="packets">
INSERT INTO
packet_votes(date_voted,ipaddress,name,packet_id,reason,vote,voter_id)
(SELECT vote_attempted,ipaddress,name,packet_id,reason,vote,voter_id
FROM temp_votes
WHERE voter_id = #form.voterID#)
</cfquery>
Thanks for reading this though :)
