But seriously, I am curious to hear some potential down-sides to this proposal. I'm having a hard time coming up with any myself.
It works well for the US Congress, after all....
(and yes, that example was purposefully chosen! )
While your example is good, I see two issues with it.....
- This shows simply a yes or no vote and the house member names are not used nor not made public until either the vote is final or a roll call vote is needed
- The discussion period has been closed and then the voting is being done as opposed to here where the discussion is still going on while the vote is happeneing
For F/t, I'd like to see the discussion period closed, then have the voting period start with the results shown in real time (and if possible, simply a yes/no/abstain without names until the vote is final/voting period has ended)
