Voting System Bakeoff by Decius at 12:54 pm EDT, Jul 16, 2007 |
Four teams of researchers from universities in the U.S., Canada, Poland and the United Kingdom begin competing today in Portland, Oregon, to win a prize for the best open-source voting system. The three-day University Voting System Competition, which ends July 18th, is sponsored by the National Science Foundation.
Some interesting approaches will be demoed here. |

And then, likely, promptly ignored by everyone. Sorry, too cynical? I really do hope it goes somewhere, but I'm not betting on it. |

If anyone is listened to it will likely be the people presenting at this bakeoff. These are fairly prominent people. |
