@johnarnold The theoretical properties are also quite a bit stronger. Most notably independent moderates who would beat either the Rep/Dem head-to-head should win with approval voting but likely still lose with RCV. Of course will need more adoption to validate.

@johnarnold It is a bit earlier on (just adopted in Fargo and St. Louis so far) but the data I’ve seen indicates people are more open to it than RCV so may have a better shot at getting very broad adoption.

Excited to have joined @ElectionScience's board of directors to support their mission of advancing voting methods that strengthen democracy. Today is an exciting milestone for this work as St. Louis becomes the second city (after Fargo) to hold an election using approval voting.

So many eyes are on St. Louis today! 🤩 It's an exciting day for approval voting, for voters, and for democracy.

@Pkillah3 @kevinroose @crowdtangle These are just the last four dates that @kevinroose tweeted on. We wanted to provide data to compare against his tweets. Not certain how he decides which days to tweet on.

@johnwhegeman @kevinroose @crowdtangle Wonder why he picked those specific dates.... July 5, 8, 10, 20... Random? Or that supported his narrative of diverse sources/views

@kevinroose I agree that engagement also matters but would interpret the two differently. Reach is more reflective of how News Feed ranking works and engagement is more reflective of what people choose to interact with.

@lydiakye @kevinroose @crowdtangle Ah, sorry for not being more precise on the terminology. The charts in twitter.com/johnwhegeman/s… are indeed based on unique people reached.

@kevinroose @crowdtangle 6/6 As you've noted, some authoritative sources on COVID information (ie UNICEF, AARP) get more amplification by us. We are removing them from this list since you did, but the fact remains that these posts still get high reach and would otherwise be included in the Top 10.

@kevinroose @crowdtangle 5/6 Here’s a view of what's getting the most reach on Facebook in the US, and it's not as partisan as your lists suggest. It’s a mix of news from mainstream outlets, gifs and other pop culture content.

In these days of anxiety, I wanted to find a way to continue to share some of the music that gives me comfort. The first of my #SongsOfComfort: Dvořák – "Going Home”
Stay safe.

@lukestein @ben_golub I think this also solves the bonus, right? In that case you’ll know they are all equal or that 12 is the odd one after two weighings and then 12 vs 1 let’s you discern between those three cases.
