Election Discussion

[Peter]

That being said, I think Kodratos's vote should count because it can't be a repost as their was no official presidential vote in the first place.

There was an official one in the first place - the SoFA simply said that he couldn't count it because it was invalid.

[Brandon H]

Why isn't red NJ Avatar's vote counting?

I'm also kind of surprised at how many votes Kodratos has gotten, he's pretty inactive as well.

Yeah, this is stupid, he didn't show up to the debate, he never ran any ads, he's hardly done anything except announced a run and people are all over him.  Of course I want the mideast to vote for me, but if you don't like me or my veiws, you could at least for vote MasterJedi who is campaigning.

[Sam Spade]

In terms of turnout, I count 73 total votes placed out of 138 registered voters up to milk_and_cereal.  (Huck Finn registered after the date). 

4 of these votes will be invalid right now: Kevin, Kodratos, Red NJ Avatar and phnkrocket.  It remains to see how the SoFA will handle those.  Tradition says they will not be asterisked or be deleted.

I have not figured out how many asterisked voters will be deleted from the rolls so far or how many new voters will not vote will be deleted either according to new Constitutional guidelines.

In terms of Regional turnout, I count as follows:

Mideast 12 (34)
Midwest: 9 (21)
Northeast: 21 (40)
Southeast: 13 (20)
Pacific: 18 (24)

All Southeast voters are still eligible.  In the Pacific, obviously StevenNick is ineligible and will never be seen again.  Dunno about the rest of the Regions.

I'm avoiding doing strict counting for the final rounds because it's too complicated right now.

I thought this was going to be a rout for you

[MasterJedi]

I thought this was going to be a rout for you

If everyone still comes that supported me earlier I can definitly get 5 more votes and I have a possibility of getting 2 additional votes as well.

I fully agree with this statement, except vote for me instead of M&C.

Southeast

Ben Meyers - 5

Kevin, Kodratos, phknrocket and RED NJ AVATAR are not counted here.

[Peter]

Okay - Just realised in my check through all the ballots that we have another disqualification issue:

Banana Republic's vote has avatar problems, just as RED NJ AVATARS did.

[Platypus]

for a really interesting election, have a look at this-http://www.abc.net.au/elections/nt/2005/results/default.htm

the ALP were expected to maybe possibly hold onto government. Instead, they have about 18 seats-out of 25. For a party that NEVER won government in the Territory before 2001, it's amazing!

[Peter]

Turnout (These numbers include all presently discounted ballots also, through Umengus)

Mideast - 13 voters out of 36 - 36%
Midwest - 9 voters out of 21 - 43%
Northeast - 21 votes out of 39 - 54%
Pacific - 18 votes of 24 - 75%
Southeast - 13 votes of 21 - 62%

Atlasia - 74 votes out of 141 - 53%

The eagle eyed among you may have noticed a few discrepancise with the FA voter list:

George W Bush is registered in the Mideast but is constrained to vote from Texas under the 10 day rule - he is thus counted as a part of the SEs turnout.

Huckleberry Finn is not allowed to vote under the 10 day rule, and thus I have not included him at all.

Okay. Didn't count the disqualified votes (except for Kevin; god knows what he means there)

If Banana Republic fixes his avatar or signature, his vote will count.

I PMed him on that issue. Hopefully he notices

I guess someone once explained to him how approval voting works, and he thought this was what we're using.
Just a guess, though.

Phknrochet1k was last active on June 11, somewhere around 3 am, so he could have voted during the absentee vote hours. That disqualifies it then.

Phknrochet1k was last active on June 11, somewhere around 3 am, so he could have voted during the absentee vote hours. That disqualifies it then.

We've already determined this.  He can still show up and vote as he hasn't officially even voted yet, but this is unlikely to happen.

[CheeseWhiz]

This is a Midwest breakdown of who can vote in the Federal Election and who can't.

Those who can:

Blue Rectangle*
BRTD
CheeseWhiz
DanielX
Gustaf
Ilikeverin
J.R.Brown
Jas
Jfern
MissCatholic
Mr. Hobbes
OWL
PBrunsel
Polkergeist*
WMS
Yaks Hairbrush

Those who can't:

Clay*
Dabeav
Fritz*
J-Mann
John Engle
Dick Nixon


Those who have already voted are in italics.
Those who have voted and had their vote disqualified are in red.

If my calculations are correct, the Midwest has a 56.25% turnout of those able to vote.
