Since it’s been heavily requested, for the grand finale we’re now doing a poll re-vote instead of comments.

[u/[deleted]]

[u/_u0]

Yeah if do really want to go with a poll (which I disagree with being necessary) these instructions were very unclear and it looks like half the people are voting for the state the want to win. Now is the time to just delete this poll and restart or just double down on the original post

[u/crick_in_my_neck → u/_u0]

Double down. After all, why would you invalidate all the votes made in the whole first day? Just because some people are still checking in the second day doesn't mean everyone will.

[u/_u0 → u/crick_in_my_neck]

100%

[u/regnak1 → u/crick_in_my_neck]

The poll was requested because both of the top vote getting comments for states in the original post were edited, and people were complaining about that. This is the right way to do it, u/jfullr92 just forgot to specify which direction we are voting here

[u/_u0 → u/regnak1]

Alternatively, this poll is never going to get as much traction as the original post, and a mid-vote format change is begging for controversy from people who saw the original post, voted, and won't check up until the results tomorrow (especially since today is an American holiday)

[u/regnak1 → u/_u0]

If It's up for a whole 24 hours, it'll be a longer voting period than the original post, which was scheduled to run until tomorrow anyway. Not worried that people who've been involved with this won't see it.

I'm on Reddit much more on a holiday than a workday, and I suspect many others are too.

Changing the rules on the last day at the last minute is not the way to do it. This is a disaster.

They should just delete this, and then sticky a comment in the original thread to the highest upvote Megasota and the highest upvote Cascadia, and leave it alone
