- Unseelie 15y agoWhy on earth would you want to base votes on who has the most computing power?
- scarlson 15y agoAssuming Hardware = Wattage Output = Voting power; US power sources overlayed on 2008 Electoral Map. Too close to call. http://i.imgur.com/d1Fyf.jpg http://i.imgur.com/d1Fyf.jpg I was too lazy to fix Alaska and Hawaii.

- Unseelie 15y agoPlease explain the intent of that graphic? Or, rather, what does where the electicity is have to do with voting power, aside from the congruence with cities?
- gwern 15y agoNo. There are already vastly superior anonymous e-voting schemes. The only usecase would be if you wanted to put some restriction on voting but still leave it open to everyone in the world, so it'd be kind of like Namecoin but paying for votes rather than DNS.
