So you wouldn't mind if one person comes along and ask the bot to calculate 50 users' candidate scores?

@quid The ElectionBot has dominated this thread more than any human user, in part because users have been spending more time playing with the bot than discussion the election. I see very little participation by candidates and real human users. If this is how future election chats on SE are going to operate, no one should even bother with such a chatroom.

Bots are only useful if they facilitate human dialogue, in this case, between candidates and users, and between users. This particular bot has shut dialogue between human users down to a trickle, at best.
