Hi Shaun!
11 Mar 2022 06:20, from Shaun Buzza -> Richard Menedetter:
SB> Also, there are *zero* 'no' votes, at least in this current election.
SB> Does that mean a single 'yes' vote would mean a win?
Finally you got the meaning of more yes than no ... it took you sime time, but now you habe it.
SB> Or the flip side; if everyone abstains on a candidate, except one 'no'
SB> vote, does that candidate automatically lose?
You finally really got it.
Let us practice a bit:
10 yes, 12 no -> no
8 yes, 5 no -> yes
0 yes, 1 no -> no
SB> How does that make any more sense than discarding abstentions?
Yes means, the region thinks, that the candidate should be taken.
No means , the candidate is deemed unfit, and should NOT be taken.
Anstain means, the region does not have an oppinion, so it does say nothing with regards to that candidate, but says yes or no to others (maybe).
Because nobody thought the candidate was good, and 1 region thought he/she was not good.
So NO.
CU, Ricsi
