[EM] Poll on voting-systems, to inform voters in upcoming enactment-elections

[Michael Ossipoff]

I'm reading from the Spam-Folder to find out what nominations I've missed
from blocked individuaos.

But there's no guarantee that I'll find everything that I missed, & so it
would be great if someone would post a few additional updates of the
nominations-list, at least until I get the remaining 2 persons( for a total
of 3 of the 4) provisionally unblocked.

I told you that I was done with that conversation, & then you posted "I
know that Michael said he was done with this conversation, but..."

...& then proceeded to continue your repetition of your unusual personal
definition of bias & your interpretation of "most proportional"., without
saying where Professor Huntington went wrong with his justification of
ratio as a measure of variation in s/v. You said that you found
Huntington's paper, but evidently either didn't read it or didn't
understand it. You didn't share with us what you believe was the error in
his argument, or why your interpretation is better than his.

I certainly had the right to block you instead of continuing to receive
your messages with your repetition. You didn't give me a choice, when you
continued it.

I haven't decided to ignore anyone. I've requested that nominations from
the 4 blocked individuals be re-posted by someone else. Additionally, I've
already provisionally unblocked Garman, & will next unblock Kristofer &
Bristow, provisionally.

Anyway, there's no need to say that anyone is "running" the poll. The
nominations count, & are distributed to all of us. Someone other than me
should post a few more nomination-list updates, because obviously mine
can't be reliably-complete until I've unblocked the 2 remaining persons
whom I intend to provisionally unblock, for the purpose of my participation
in the poll
