Wait a minute, Thomas, I confuse myself with your note.
I dropped voting (or "weighing", just a euphemism for voting) a LONG time ago as it turned out that it does take all the passion and energy out of the work. Also, it was a lot of statistical trouble and the most voted issues never got touched by anyone. So, we did what I would now call the obvious, go straight from the divergent mode into action space, right, sit in a circle and invite "projects" (which, of course, were in many ways interconnected with the discussions before). People then gathered at the posted "projects" and started to plan next steps. Reading more of your mail I was startled that the results of the voting would then be clustered by a small group. More hard work. And then all that stuff is presented to politicians... why were they not among the 1000? And what is happening to the 1000? Are they leaving after their "input" was presented to the politicians? Or, how about skipping the voting, have more time for reading and open the action space next day with the politicians there to get "them" to input into the projects and get busy planning next steps around projects they have a passion for?

Cheers

Anyone who used voting via text message(people using their phones)?
Do you know any good software? In May I will facilitating a large one
day OST I shared a bit about earlier. My sponsor counts on 1000
participants. The voting will be on the topics that came up on the
agenda as we cannot give time to read all reports…

Using such a software, the results will be visible directly. In the
evening the topics will be clustered by a smaller group. This may
change the visible results.

The results will be used the next day when politicians on the
national level will have them as input to what is important regarding
creating a viable/lusty country side in Sweden.

Any other ideas about voting with such a large group? Cheers Thomas
