I read the wikipedia article on how this voting system is supposed to work but I'm not sure what it does to my votes if I only cast one or two instead of all three.
So, lets say 100 people voted. If I vote only for A but the outcome of the first preference is A 20, B 40 and C 40, then A will be eliminated but since I didn't vote for B or C, will the next round continue with 99 votes instead of 100 or what will happen?

@Sumyrda for a full ballot, should all three of the choices be eliminated the ballot is done & the count continues with those that are left. If you don't use all your slots your ballot drops out earlier but nothing else changes. (In this election no full ballots can drop out, but in bigger ones...)

Less than an hour to go!

@MonicaCellio Thanks for the explaination.

"are we there yet?"
Is Undo's election bot running?
I guess we'll find out in 2 minutes.
@gnat dont make me turn this election around
It's over; at a glance, Jane S has the most 1st votes.
But I don't have the software installed, so...
where did you get that from
20:03
ahh
317 votes, thats the most so far for a workpalce election
the first and last columns can be disregarded. The three in the middle are votes.
The candidates are listed at the bottom, so 1 = "Jane S", 2 = "Rory Alsop", 3 = "yochannah"
(This is just the order in which they appear)
downloaded the program, it says jane S wins

By being nice, sensible, polite, and prolific. I never really doubted you'd win ;)

@JaneS Congratulations! Hurry up and change the home site on your chat profile to blue yourself
@yochannah LOL! Well I'm usually smiling so I guess I'm about right here :)
@Air I've changed the parent site to The Workplace, was that what you meant? So many things to see and learn :)
Oh, there it goes! :)

Yeah, chat isn't quite smart enough to fetch a diamond unless you tell it where to look
@Air Sounds remarkably like me! ;)
