[Election-Methods] Talk to the public, on alt.politics.election thread

[Michael Ossipoff]

We discuss arguments for showing the public the merit of Approval or other 
good voting systems You might want to try some of those arguments out on the 
public, in a thread on the newsgroup
alt.politics.elections.

I asked a poll question there "Which of these voting systems would you 
accept for public elections?"

(I asked about the same four methods as in the poll that I reported)

So far no one at the newsgroup has said which of those methods they'd 
accept, but I've gotten some complaints against electoral reform in general. 
Maybe, like me, you're burned-out about discussing that with Joe Citizen. 
But maybe you'd like to try out some of the arguments that we've been 
discussing, to answer people's objections to better voting systems.

Sure, you could start such a thread at any time, but right now it's in 
progress.

And, if anyone would criticize our voting system poll for its small turnout, 
then I invite you to do some polling of your own. Do I have to be the only 
one of us who bothers to ask the public which voting system they'd accept?
