Elections of all kinds. I’ve used pen and paper as well as a silly script to choose as a group what to eat, what movie to watch, what book to read, and who to elect as president of a club. The issue is it takes time to do it, and every bit of friction makes it more likely someone will object to a new and different electoral system, even if it is better.
So a good Majority Judgment webapp or something like that would be used for fast elections of all kind.
Bonus points if it’s FLOSS, so that it gets more legitimacy.
This sounds like it would be pretty useful but I feel like I’d have a hard time convincing people to not use first past the post. Maybe a web app would help convincing them…
