Election Discussion

The Jesus vote flows to JFK, so you should add another vote to JFK.

50 votes through.  This is about the most even election ever.

[Sam Spade]

Does the 25 post rule only apply to Federal elections?

Yes, unless you've made it a part of Regional law.

[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.

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.

We are disagreeing on some discrepancies here.  I only have 139 members total.  I only have 20 voters in the SE, even if you count GWB.  Without him there's 19.  And I have 33 voters in the Mideast and 41 in the Northeast.

And since right now for some reason my computer can't pull up the SoFA's list, I can't check for sure.

hmmm...

[Sam Spade]

Now, in terms of turnout, I count 87 total votes placed out of 138 eligible voters up to BushOklahoma.  (Huck Finn registered after the date). 

I don't know how many votes will be invalid right now, though I'm hearing a total of 4 will be. 

In terms of Regional turnout, I count as follows:

Mideast 17 (33)
Midwest: 10 (21)
Northeast: 25 (40) (41, counting Huck Finn)
Southeast: 17 (20)
Pacific: 18 (24)

[Sam Spade]

Ah.  Our discrepancy is built on the fact that neither Leif Ericson, nor KentonNgo, nor South Park Republican have 50 posts and therefore I moved them to being possible voters a while ago, because at present they don't meet the requirements.

As to the reason why I have one more NE voter than you, I still don't know, but we're getting closer.

Ah.  Now having looked at the Southeast Registered Voter page on the Wiki, Siege40 is still listed as a member of Southeast (Alabama), when he is now a member of Northeast (Vermont).

Now our numbers fit perfectly.

[Sam Spade]

Actually, looking at the Southeast list a little further, it is extremely outdated, as Bono and Ben Meyers are now members of the Southeast and Ernest isn't either.  The total still comes to 20.

My list is correct for Southeast voters.

I understand that your list is correct, True Dem.  I was just talking about the list up on the Wiki page, which isn't correct.  That's all.
