- To vote, rank all of the proposals in order, numbering them in order of preference, with one being the most preferred . Valid ballots must have at least three proposals numbered
- Voting opens at 8:00 EST on 13 March, 2004, and closes 72 hours later.
- The winner will be determined as follows: The first-preference votes will be tallied. If one proposal obtains an absolute majority, it wins. Otherwise, the proposal with the fewest number of first-preference votes is eliminated, and the votes are redistributed based on the next-highest preferences. Such elimination and redistribution is continued until one proposal has an absolute majority.
- As Hugh and the Vice President agreed, maps including regions with fewer than three voters were removed. Also, any proposals that were superseded by later proposals from the same author were excluded. Finally, proposals that did not involve exactly five regions were excluded.

What happened to including all the maps? I thought that is what we agreed on...

[Gustaf]

I see that I got some 3rd places...that's reasonable good I guess...

1. G

The rest? Hmm, more to follow later...

[Emsworth]

What happened to including all the maps? I thought that is what we agreed on...

Here is a listing of the maps that were not included and the "justifications":
- of_thisnation: 6 Regions
- Miamiu1027: 2-voter Region
- Gustaf-A: 2-voter Region
- Supersoulty: Does not match 5-region plan
- Lewis-B: Superseded by Lewis-C
- Hugh-B: Superseded by other maps (Hugh declared that he prefers his other maps)

I presume, from what has been posted, that Hugh has agreed on the removal of 2-voter region-including maps.

Note to Gustaf: the ballot is informal until three preferences have been indicated.

Damn you! What do these other maps have that mine doesn't?

[Emsworth]

Damn you! What do these other maps have that mine doesn't?

Their regions are contiguous (except for the regions containing Alaska and Hawaii.)

[Harry]

Seems to be much controversy over my map . . . 5 #1 votes, but several 6 and 7 votes also . . .

VOTE MAP E!!!!

[Gustaf]
