36. Without seeing what rules were given to voters I can't say one way or the other here

Tue May 13, 2025, 10:44 AM

Tuesday

Say there were 2 men and 4 women on the ballot and the instructions were to vote for up to 2 candidates with no more than one of them not a man. Then I could vote for one woman and turn in the ballot. But if the instructions were to vote for 2 candidate with one having to be male, then I couldn't vote for one woman and turn in the ballot. Or the instructions could have been vote for up to two candidates with one being male. That is more ambiguous. I think better in real time to use the count and not the vote to get the male candidate (highest overall wins, then if the winner isn't male the highest male wins if the winner was male the 2nd count wins). But I am not convinced without seeing how many women there were and what instructions were given exactly to what degree males were advantaged.
