Currently, all 7 staff members vote. 70% or currently 5/7 of current staff must approve of a vote. We use anonymous unranked approval voting, with names of voters revealed after the vote.

Results of past votes

A list of all votes we've held:

Sept 9 2011

  • We lowered the threshold down to 70%, or currently 5/7 for all votes. That means 6/8, 7/9, 7/10

Aug 15 2011

With that vote, we now have 100% approval for:

"we should adopt this budget" (aug-oct budget)

"we should require only 75% (6 of 7) approval" for approving budgets in the future

(In the case of 75%, if the number of voters changes, the percent would stay the same, though the # of voters to get that might change.)
