@M.A.R.ಠ_ಠ I still don't get that one. Like, just how large is the market of people moving in Hyderabad? And how many of them see stuff on Stack Overflow?

As of writing, 260 people downvoted @Magisch nomination. To me, that seems that over 200 users are involved in voting rings. (with ~60 just being people who downvoted, just for downvoting)
 
hah
 
@angussidney well @Rob looks like a shoo in @Floern stands a good chance. @ArtOfCode @Magisch and I - well .. we can sing songs together :)
 
:(
 
3:00 AM
@WELZ honestly I don't understand some of the voting
I'm surprised Vladamir has over 400 upvotes
 
Catija brought up a great point... every user here has 14 votes in the primary... in the actual election it's just 1
 
that changes in the election - only 3 choices and no downvotes - it really changes the dynamics
 
STV does odd things. Especially to the guy in third.
 
STV? I don't recall seeing that in the list of abbreviations
;)
Splitting the votes? 🤔
 
The single transferable vote (STV) is a voting system designed to achieve proportional representation through ranked voting in multi-seat organizations or constituencies (voting districts). Under STV, an elector (voter) has a single vote that is initially allocated to their most preferred candidate and, as the count proceeds and candidates are either elected or eliminated, is transferred to other candidates according to the voter's stated preferences, in proportion to any surplus or discarded votes. The exact method of reapportioning votes can vary (see Counting methods). The system provide...
 
3:06 AM
Yeh, I don't understand that whole system, despite reading it in, as they claim, "plain english"
Imagine the US used such a system... would be a bloody nightmare.
looks like we do:
 
Would be decent, actually.
 
@Undo the other thing is - many of the upvotes are by the same people (as mentioned by @Catija and @WELZ) so when it comes to choosing the top 3 it really leaves a few candidates with split votes, as I notice a trend for voters to favour a "core" group of candidates - for want of a better description. Which means outliers from that group are advantaged, as their votes aren't as split
 
>City elections in Cambridge, Massachusetts
At-large municipal board seats[7] in Minneapolis, Minnesota
 
Does that make sense?
I don't have a problem with the system
 
@YvetteColomb I only upvoted for 3 users (including you :) and then downvoted the rest...
 
3:07 AM
@YvetteColomb Here's one to study: Jeremy Banks' rise from 10th in primaries to 3rd in the election phase.
 
Rob
@YvetteColomb Still a week to go, most primary winners get up to 8,000-10,000 votes, so we're quite a way off from having a result
@WELZ There's really only two parts for it. If your current vote's candidate is knocked out, your vote then defers to second, and then third place
 
@Rob yeh, takes time to fully build up peoples socks :D
 
Rob
If too many people vote for #1, then your vote is split
 
@Rob well it's a good start Rob and I hope to see you elected
@Undo which election number Undo?
 
@WELZ I tend to think it'd help break the two-party system - you can vote for the Green Party or the Purple Party or whatever, and if/when they get eliminated your vote transfers over to Blue or Red.
@YvetteColomb 7, maybe?
 
3:09 AM
@WELZ thanks. I have a mixture of up and down and no votes.
@Undo I'll have a look
 
6
 
@Undo Currently there's a sentiment of "You can vote for the Libertarian candidate, but you'd be wasting your vote 'cause he's not going to win anyway, might as well vote Republican because you hate them less then you hate Democrats"
Or the other way around, as the case may be.
 
@Rob And this is where tactical voting can lead to spoilers...
 
Rob
Spoilers?
 
3:11 AM
Bizarre results
 
@Undo In the US 2016 case, lots of folks didn't want to vote either Blue or Red, and some say that majorly changed the outcome of the Elections. I personally wouldn't want to vote for candidate A, knowing that if they get eliminated my vote will just get passed on to candidate B.
 
@WELZ That's not how it works. You choose the progression.
So if you hate candidate B... just don't vote for them.
 
Looking at the primary scores right now, someone could say... "Pink's a shoo-in, I don't need to vote for him. If I vote for someone else, they'll get my entire vote instead of only part of it." But if they don't vote for Pink, even in third place, and everyone does the same thing, the obvious leader may not win at all!
 
@Undo that's interesting - would love to see a vote breakdown of the election for that one
 
The Opa Vote link should be around somewhere... assuming they were using it at that point?
 
3:14 AM
@Catija of course - as you say strategic voting can trip people up - but it depends on how many people vote like that
 
@Catija not sure
 
Most of us in this room were probably too young to even vote in the last presidential election (in the US)
 
@Undo thanks - I'm so lazy in this room - I know you guys will always have the info.
 
Rob
@WELZ Heh, we have somewhat of an opposite problem with too many candidates for people to reliably vet. It practice, though, we essentially have a two party system.
Voting gets so complicated that candidates give you a sheet of paper telling you how to number your votes in order to maximize their chances
 
3:15 AM
@Undo ah that explains a lot - the 1st position had so many 1st votes and the others were split
 
@YvetteColomb I'm closer to the datacenters than Australia ;)
 
@Undo LOL and probably have BETTER internet to boot
 
@Rob isn't that what the primary is for?
 
Jeremy was always in second place, though... so, while the primary numbers were off, seems like the people who had him as first choice, won out.
 
@Rob That... is a lot of parties
 
Rob
3:18 AM
@WELZ We have a somewhat different system from the U.S. I'm not particularly involved in it - I don't know the exact details about it; but that's what we're handed to vote in federal elections
And it's mandatory to vote
 
It's super complicated, and Mandatory, Great!
"Animal Justice Party"? :/
Do they get their votes from kangaroos? :D
 
I wish voting here were mandatory. I'm so frustrated by people who say shit like "don't blame me, I didn't vote".
 
@WELZ Australia doesn't have public primaries. The parties decide which candidates they are going to run in an election. Everyone votes on the same day, and can usually vote in one of two ways. Either tick a box above the line for a single party (which means the party will distribute preferences as they see fit) or number from 1-X where X is the number of candidates if they want fine grained control over how their preferences flow.
Personally I vote below the line
 
Can't always trust the party ;)
 
Rob
@WELZ Well, the idea is that it should be somewhat easy to run as a candidate here. Essentially, to allow anyone a chance, not just the wealthy. It just gets out of hand. But as I said, if you're interested in a particular party, they always have representatives there to tell you the ordering to help them.
 
3:21 AM
What can make it tricky is if there are a bunch of random candidates for microparties and I can't decide if I want to vote for Phillipa McSweatycrack from the Bumblehead party over Sammy Von Smellydraws from the Stumblefoot party
 
I'm Running for Australian Senate through the WELZ party!
 
usually those candidates get numbered in the middle and the candidates who fall in the "never in a million years" bracket get the higher numbers
 
@Catija I agree 100% and think that it should be like Jury Duty... you just do it. (it's much easier than JD)
 
:( I've never gotten to do jury duty. :( I've been called twice... first time I was on an extended stay out of the country, so they exempted me... second time I sat around in the courthouse for four hours only to have the case cancelled or settled or whatever.
 
@Catija on a serious note, don't blame me, I didn't vote. :o

Didn't or couldn't... there's a difference.

Issues might be an issue
 
In terms of stars, issues settings etc it's impossible
 
@JohnDvorak If anyone has a copy of the repo, the full history of the repo can be recovered from that.
 
Someone can just recreate it with a recent cloned copy of the repo
