Re: [ga] Voting and Polling booths

[Joop Teernstra <terastra@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Eric,

Getting "control" over the IDNO was a very important issue...for those  who 
wanted to use that control to terminate the democratic constituency for once 
and for all. You may remember who they were.

I don't really care which polling system is used. There are better ones than 
mine.

To get a feel of what is available for free, people who know me might as well 
use this one http://www.alienwarechallenge.com/news/GLOBAL_POLL-42.html to vote 
for my daughter Livia in a wild-travel backpackers' competition.

It uses "capcha's" and return emails to weed out robots.

Bonus: You go in the draw for one of those super-duper alienware laptops.

  Thanks Joop,

  Does anyone have a problem with this system?

  Seems like there was some hubbub about control of the thing.  I never quite 
got that level of paranoia.  So if there are any objections let us know.

  My Polling Booth is available for secret ballots.  For all options, see
  http://pollingbooth.info/about/

  Voter registration (name, email)   is necessary.

    I am keeping this transparent and open.


    Please suggest to me on this list -- voting places.


    I am looking for this field of info to be included in registration and to 
be public. E mail address. Name. Time on this list. Or even not on this list or 
maybe used to be on this list. Certainly any affiliation in ICANN matters will 
be welcome -- we are the GA after all. I really want some counsel members and 
some folk like NCUC or whatever the are called and then some at-smalls.


    Then I want secret ballot.  We are looking for the most open booth to 
assure transparency and public verification but we want a secure booth for how 
a vote was cast.  I want this booth to be used and used weekly. And soon I want 
it used to replace me with someone who can claim a little more legitimacy.  
ICANN needs a public opinion poll on ongoing issues. We are logical to provide 
such.
