 | It's official! After 33 rounds (hey, I lasted halfway!), Betsy Hodges and Mark Andrew were left - Hodges was declared the winner with 38,870 votes (48.95%) to Andrew's 24,972 votes (31.44%). Exhausted ballots were 15,573 (19.61%). So I needed juuuuuuust about 38,680 more votes - if you're gonna fall short, fall WAY short. |

| Sorry I'm late. Did you already figure it out? We were the only two declared Libertarians in the race |
| 7.11.13 19:18 |
 | Found my notes - ward order this time around is: 8, 11, 3, 13*, 9*, 5*, 7, 6, 10, 12, 2, 4, 1
*race needs RCV elimination(s) |

| 7.11.13 19:04 |
| The Charter Commission wasted no time putting forward a proposal to increase the filing fee for mayor from $20 to $500. I ALSO wasted no time taking to E-Democracy.org to complain about it. (Link to E-Democracy.org: Unelected Charter Commission Unanimously Approves Recommendation to Increase Mayoral Filing Fee to $500) |

| By 1 vote, James Everett pips in their 11th and final swap - she'll be eliminated in Round 25 and he in R26. |
| 7.11.13 17:05 |
| Interesting (only to me?) thing about RCV counting is that Ms. Bennett & Mr. Everett have changed places 10 times so far |

 | Whoa, I figured you already knew me. You might like to join us over at the-w.com ! |
| 7.11.13 13:07 |
| This is probably a bad time, but you've misspelled Rahaman's first name every time so far |
| 7.11.13 12:59 |
| I can't disagree there, but if you ran for months/year, why not wait until you're mathematically eliminated? For your supporters |
| 7.11.13 12:44 |
| I officially finished 21st out of 35.
Also, the MN Libertarian Party may have excommunicated me. I'm not sure. |
| 7.11.13 12:29 |
| When Clark is eliminated, check the "exhausted" pile gain to see how we probably split the (massive) libertarian vote |
| 7.11.13 12:27 |
| Interestingly (?), I have passed the largest number of votes in any round - 54 to the "blessed" LP candidate |
| 7.11.13 12:22 |
| TWO DAYS AFTER ELECTION DAY: Round 17 is complete and I have officially been eliminated. I'm the 20th runner-up. My 194 votes have been transferred to other candidates, where applicable. (If you voted for any of the 20 people above me #1 but ranked me #2 or #3, I never got your vote - you should switched us and kept me alive one more round!)
I always said my main goal was to not finish last, so in that respect I have succeeded beyond expecations. ;-)
Thanks to everybody for sharing this experience with me! |
