So we're voting for the 5 that we most want to keep?

Exact. Give us your top 5. Smiley

1860 is already included in the top 5. Are we to list the other 4 elections that we want in the top 5, or the top 5 excluding 1860?

No, you have to rank 5 elections (there is no particular reason for this number, but still. Wink). And don't forget to rank them by your order of preference.


I hope it's clear now, it's important for us to have correctly-cast and numerous votes. Smiley

Nobody has 1948 in his top 5 ? Surprising.

1) 1948
2) 1932
3) 1968
4) 1960
5) 2008

Before I end this I'll give you some hours to verify if you have preferenced the 5 elections you prefer and to change your vote if ncessary.

It would be a pity if you'd help your less favorite elections be qualified ! Tongue

It was a tough call, but I am confident that my votes are the ones I want.

1960 : 7
1912 : 6
1968 : 5
1896 : 5
1932 : 4
2008 : 4
1980 : 3
1948 : 3
1824 : 3
1976 : 2
1992 : 2
1796 : 1

Being present in 78% of the voters' top 5, the 1960 Election is qualified for the top 5 !

Interestingly, the 1884 election is the only one which didn't receive any vote. Tongue

Using IRV, 1912 would have narrowly won in the third round, 5-4 against 1968. 1960 would have got only 1 vote...

Well, now, let's proceed with our survivor !
I have classified the 12 remaining elections in 3 groups composed of 4 elections, so that each group's survivor will be qualified for the Final Top 5. Before you ask if I used particular criterion for the group classification : yes, I, did, but I'm not telling you which one until the end of the Survivor. Wink

Anyways, here they are :

Group 1 :
1968
1976
1980
1992

Group 2 :
1796
1912
1948
2008

Group 3 :
1824
1884
1896
1932

Now you have one vote (for each group). In each group, the election with the most votes will be eliminated.

It's one of the most important elections ever, up there with 1860.

Group 1 : 1992 is out

1992 : 3
1976 : 3
1980 : 1
1968 : 1

And now TrueCon owns us all because 1992 has more votes previously ! Tongue And I must say that for one I agree with him : 1976 was a more interesting than 1992, overall.





Group 2 : 2008 is out

1796 : 4
2008 : 4

Weirdly, dumbly and sadly, 2008 has got 7 votes in the initial rounds (most of them coming from hacks like Libertas), while 1796 has got only 6 "first prefenerce" votes. So 2008 goes, and the pointless election is safe once again.





Group 3 : 1884 is out

1884 : 7
1932 : 1

And finally a clear majority, and for the right election Tongue.




Round 45 begins. Now you have 10 votes, that you must split as you want between 3 different elections in 3 different groups (but you must give at least 2 votes to an election in each group).
