After almost a full day past reminders we just crossed the 50% turnout mark; just 4 more ballots needed to match the midterm referendum's absolute voter count, and 7 to match the percentage turnout.

One small note is that I forgot about daytime saving being a thing, so the deadline displayed on the database was actually inaccurate by an hour, as it uses server time which is UTC. This has been fixed, but I still plan on adding TST (TDT) and local user timezone displays as well before we get too close to the deadline and the actual number of hours left starts mattering more.

I think Pol does have a Wittenberg account: @paolo.mellere

Your vote has been entered, here's your receipt. Unfortunately the provincial vote has been recorded as PRESENT since "Green" is not a valid vote for Fiovă's Praisidïeu election, in which you must rank any number of citizens, not parties.

Reminders sent! Turnout is 42% with 9 days to go.

Seven whole days of voting have elapsed - first round of email reminders will go out tomorrow afternoon CET, so in around 20 hours. I think that also means all three parties who sent out literature should be eligible for a second round of literature. (Though again, I'm going to be fairly busy so anything I receive will also be sent out tomorrow afternoon CET at the earliest)

A quick note to report that we have surpassed 1/3 turnout with two weeks to go, and that two of four voters contacted about correcting their Atatürk/Florencia provincial ballots have reached out to do so.

Azul, I thought I would summarise and comment on the Atatürk/Florencia provincial vote issue outside of the polling thread, as I have now investigated the issue more in depth.

Two voters (Antaglha and Mximo) reported issues with casting their provincial vote:

- In Antaglha's case, the issue was that the PRESENT box was impossible to deselect in the specific combination of settings (strictly write-in vote with a text field) that is used by Atatürk and Florencia's provincial ballot spaces. This was indeed a bug; it was immediately corrected and her vote was amended to reflect her original choice. I have no reason to believe any other vote was lost or miscast because of the original bug.

- In Mximo's case, the claim was that the database would ignore the write-in vote and mark it down as PRESENT. While I thought it could be a plausible bug, I later found no issues with the code, except that the PRESENT box was checked by default, which if not manually unchecked would lead to the vote being ignored. So this was no bug, but it definitely was poor UX implementation, which I apologise for; this was fixed yesterday at around 2 PM TST, and the PRESENT box is now UNchecked by default for this type of race.


However, I am still worried that the initial UX implementation led some people to fill in their provincial vote without unchecking the PRESENT box. Therefore, I will be contacting four voters of Atatürk and Florencia who cast provincial ballots via the database between the Antaglha bugfix and approx. 2 PM TST yesterday, when the UX change was made, in order to confirm their vote.

Same problem for me in the Nimlet Vote.
I write the answer but the system put present.

I vote for Green in the Nimlet.

I'm sorry, it seems there is indeed a bug. I will investigate in short order and contact all voters who cast ballots in the Atatürk and Florencia provincial races to offer them to recast their vote. In the meantime, your vote has been corrected.

EDIT: On second inspection, the code seems to work fine. However, it is true that the PRESENT box is checked by default, which may lead to confusion. I have made it so that this is no longer the case, and will still be contacting voters to offer the chance to recast provincial ballots in those two races.
