What to do about this foundation poll (developer reimbursement) and its mandate/minimum vote weight ?

in #gridcoin7 years ago (edited)

The Developer Reimbursement 6 Month Package poll has ended:  

  • 15.87% of all voting shares took part in this. So, less than 20%
  • and it was approved by 98.5%


And now let's look at this poll from February:  


And at the following poll (Feb/March):  


And there are more related polls, see March:  

  • 4.41% participation: Meta poll: If A Poll Attempts To Establish A  Minimum Vote Weight Requirement For  Future Polls , Should The Poll In  Question Require An Equal Level Of  Vote Weight Participation To Be  Considered Legitimate?  
    • best answer = yes (99.71%)
  • 4.11% participation: Meta poll: How Should We Interpret The Outcome Of A Poll?  
    • best answer = proportional representation (75.28%)


Poll mechanism: Should there be a minimum vote weight required for foundation polls?

Sort:  

The fact that the expense poll had a high participation of 15.8% is a very good number, and with 198 voters this is a historic high in participation.

I don't think there is any doubt that the poll has been approved.

The two polls you are referring to never came to a consensus on how much a poll needed to be approved.

Meta Poll : If A Poll Attempts To Establish A Minimum Vote Weight Requirement For Future Polls , Should The Poll In Question Require An Equal Level Of Vote Weight Participation To Be Considered Legitimate?

  • This poll tried to establish whether a poll that tries to establish a minimum would require that minimum to be passed. The outcome was Yes, but only had 4.4% participation, so quite low.

Should There Be A Minimum Vote Weight Required For Foundation Polls?

  • A weight of 20% was voted on, but only 17.4% where voting.
    Result: Failing due to the Meta Poll

Meta Poll : What Is The Minimum Vote Weight That Should Be Required For Mandate Behind A Poll To Be Valid?

  • A weight of 25% was voted on. But only 1.3% where voting.
    Result: Failing due to the Meta Poll

Conclusion

We have no minimum vote weight established yet and should consider a poll with so much vote weight and voting participation to be acknowledged and approved.

Voted up and Resteemed. Thanks for participating in my social experiment (5 smallest Steemit Tags in Steemit). Cheers.
