The following referendum is to decide which method will be used to decide winners of Maemo Community Council elections. Three options are proposed: first past the post, single transferable vote and reweighted range voting.

To vote, please visit [http://maemo.org/vote the voting page].

== Proposed options ==

The changes mentioned below will be made to items #4 and #5 in [[Community Council#Election process|the Council election process]].

# '''No change''' ("first-five-candidates-past-the-post")
#* [[Community Council#Election process|Item #4]] remains "''Each community member gets one vote.''"
#* [[Community Council#Election process|Item #5]] remains "''The 5 nominees with the most votes are elected.''"
# '''A single transferrable vote system''' (rank your preferred candidates) [council preferred option]
#* [[Community Council#Election process|Item #4]] becomes "''Each community member eligible to vote gets a single ballot.''"
#* [[Community Council#Election process|Item #5]] becomes "''The 5 nominees voted for most, as counted by a single transferrable vote system are elected.''"
#* This option is preferred by the Maemo Community Council as being easiest to understand and gives a satisfactory outcome.
# '''A reweighted range voting system''' (give *each* candidate a score 0-100)
#* [[Community Council#Election process|Item #4]] becomes "''Each community member eligible to vote gets a single ballot.''"
#* [[Community Council#Election process|Item #5]] becomes "''The 5 nominees ranked highest by a reweighted range voting system are elected.''"
# '''None of the above.'''
#* This option allows you to indicate that you think none of the options is satisfactory.
