Poll will remain open until 10 am mountain time (noon eastern) on Wed, June 11, and you will not be able to see the results until then. Moderators for some boards (like IBB) are not being included because I don't feel those boards need changes.
Editing to add, for those that are wondering... we have 18 people to choose from. We need:
3 EE
2- 3 current events
4(?) PM
4-5 YM
--------
15 tops, and that's if I hold people to 1 board- which I really don't know yet. So basically, the ones with the fewest votes will be out.

there should be a box to check off next to the names. vote for any/all you would like to have and when it's all done then i'll see who ends up where.

So, you're looking for 18 mods and 1 vote secures the election?  |

It's hidden so just tick off up to 18 names and it stays there I guess. (I know nothing about polls I disabled polling on all my Boards.)

You can technically "vote against" an individual by voting for everyone except that individual. Or individuals.
Not that I condone voting against people. There's a reason they don't allow it in actual elections.

posting just to see if my votes were recorded. don't see a button to do so  ETA: interesting. looks like you can alter your vote until the time that it locks. I just played with it a little now, and was able to put things back the way I wanted them. good to know, hope that answers the question for the rest of you.  |

But there's 18 names. Are you sure you don't want us to vote for 15?

If you click off on a candidate's name, and look at the bottom where it says so many votes have been cast by so many voters, you will see the numbers increase. By checking off someone's name is casting your vote.
As I see it, you can add, change, delete a vote up until the time the thread closes on June 11. |

zibazinski- it won't matter if i hold people to 15 or let them choose every single one. the total number of votes for each person will be the deciding factor. if there happen to be ties, i'll figure something out for that at that time.
i will add that i had thought at first to do a YES or NO choice for each person. But that would have been 36 choices, which is just huge for a poll. 18 is bad enough.. so i kept it simple.

Ok. I think I did it right. If not, well, enough posters probably did. |

yes, wyouser. and if you leave the thread, your choices will still show the next time you come back, in case you wish to make changes.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

Ahhhh... so no actual button... it's a "live" (active and changeable) poll. Got it! |

Only because I was wearing a semi-sheer blouse at the time, and they thought I could use them .... strategically placed. |
