Haven’t voted yet? Why not?
It’s taken our monkeys a while, but they’ve finally counted the ballots and ranked the pairs. Who Council chose, as of Wednesday, January 20th.
Note: Proxies were counted as council members. This is simply a sample for entertainment purposes–I haven’t bothered with confidence intervals or any of that fun stuff. More results and details behind the jump!

What were the tallys for the other races-UPS, SLFS, international?
I didn’t throw them up because they had much lower N than the other races, and aren’t all that interesting.
How did you get the council’s votes?
I don’t understand.
I ran around the council table with a ballot box, and littered the room with these:

A certain degree of trust is assumed.
whoa, cool.
