\"mock\" ITA election - tanTALK

solarmeter · 08-27-2002, 04:10 PM

I offered this idea to my favorite admin. Since it wasn't taken up, it must be a bad idea. But I'll try it here anyway:

Create a new "poll you have not voted for" listing all ITA sector BoD nominated names, and allow each valid username one vote in EACH sector - not just salon sector.

Purpose would be to see if what EZ_Jim keeps harping on is significant or not. If the "winner" results are dramatically different than the real election, then salon owners would indeed have influenced the outcome.

As a side poll, you could also allow one write-in for each segment opening in liu of casting a vote for a nominee. That might be hard to set up on-line, but I hear Solid is an IT genius...

This exercise would also point out just how many of us "50" on-liners even care enough to vote, member or not.

It's not about me.. as someone else around here is fond of saying. If you's wanta do this - get hold of your fearless leader and ask him to set it up.

I know it isn't about you, just having a little joke. Okay Steve? I am game for this. It will be intersting the outcome vs. the real election.

Well... Chunn or Solid: you gonna try this or not? So far your reaction is same as Bruce's - silence.

We've done it, Steve.

Hey - early bird caught a worm, eh? I see it's for the salon sector.. with an option for non-owners to add their vote on the side.

I'll cast one when I'm back from a trip Tuesday. Can you expand it to other sectors? Object was to see if "empowered" salon owners could influence those votes or not vs "real" results.
