| Having not been invited to the WCCO (radio) forum, I instead attended the final presentation by the Elections division, where they demonstrated how a RCV count might go. My concern that the vote may be sufficiently split to prevent an actual reaching of the threshold - in which case, there will be, like, 33 rounds of eliminations and the top vote getter of the top two will take it, and everyone will do A LOT of bitching about the system...some of it probably valid, most of it probably distracting and unnecessary but enough to make the next City Council make a lot of bad changes, starting with the filing fee.
Turns out they're still on Windows XP (Microsoft has been trying to end-of-life it for YEARS - in fact, my own work laptop is scheduled for an XP to Windows 7 migration tomorrow and I'm terrified it will put an end to my productivity) and running Excel 2010. On one hand, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, but on the other hand...we're putting our faith and trust in Microsoft?! But I trust the judges and counters - if there's a problem with the technology it might mean we don't know who won until a week after Election Day, but they'll be sure to get it right before they announce it.
Also, we're supposed to be able to get access to the master ballot list and do our own audit, so you KNOW they won't mess it up when they can be called on it later.
But if nothing else, it's proven that if you're interested at all in voting for me, PLEASE consider giving me the #1 ranking - your #2 and #3 rankings won't be helpful at all if I'm eliminated in the first round!
Oh, one more thing I learned - there were NO filings for write-in candidates, so none of them will be individually counted and reported. Sorry to my friends asking to be written in...you should have filed! |
