@brigidbergin@BOENYC This is also what @RCVresources, the maker of @BOENYC's RCV software, offered to help them with, but BOE didn't accept (ignored them, actually): https://t.co/bpXGOpfq6R
@edfischman@politicshour Yes, they did, but they didn't need to keep everyone in the dark and waiting for a week, which led to complaints and criticism. And yes, the order and results can change as more ballots are included, but that's okay. They're preliminary results that provide more transparency.
@NickFrish I wish more Republicans knew the Republican Party of Virginia @VA_GOP chose to use RCV to select their nominees for governor, etc. this year (and for the second year in a row): https://t.co/ZlzMWFXW4L It’s definitely not partisan.
@MariuszFelisiak All, consider donating or having your company donate to the @djangoproject: https://t.co/tzRfYcaba6 It supports Django Fellows like @MariuszFelisiak so features like this can be merged. (Thanks, Mariusz!!)
@NGrossman81 @Motoconomist And if he lost, people would point to _that_ as a reason to stop doing it -- probably more people, in fact, and with more vehemence.
@TamarSmith3@njlockwood@Nate_Cohn Because in the tally of first choices ("Round 1" of the RCV tally) Wiley was ahead of Garcia. (This assumes that if voters could choose only one, they'd pick the same as their first choice under RCV.)
@Nobody1300@Nate_Cohn Yes, people will be able to tell this when the raw ballot data is published, but the BOE isn't doing that until after the election is certified. (Some RCV jurisdictions publish this info at the same time as preliminary tallies.)
@JLasaine@Taniel If this was a top-two election and you're only allowed to choose one, you still have to worry about wasting your vote on someone who might not make the runoff.
@LudovicSpeaks @artordillos @courtneycgross@errollouis@BOENYC@SFElections The policy isn't about RCV so much as communicating about election results in general. You can let the public know a schedule with expected times, etc, with or without RCV.
Outcomes in nearly all anked choice voting contests in New York City primaries are clear from @BOENYC results released last week, with absentees to be added on Tuesday only to affect a few like mayoral race. The single biggest narrative relates to women's electoral success....
