Topic for January 2007: UBC

[Mark Latham]

The world’s first implementation of VFM is now underway at the University of British Columbia in their student council elections this month – see

www.votermedia.org/democracy/UBCcontest.html and

www.ams.ubc.ca/elections/vfm.html

 

So we can discuss:

- who’s entering the VFM contest at UBC

- issues & questions about contest rules

- impact of VFM on the election

- VFM benefits & dangers

- future design improvements

- what’s next for VFM beyond UBC
