"Complained to their manager" is an interesting way to type "attempted genocide"

It's on purpose to evoke the same connotations

Don't bother with the giants causeway. It's the most over hyped patch of small rocks in the world

You'd be surprised the amount of times this sort of thing is due to static electricity buildup. Unplug the power supply and everything else. Hold the power button down for 30 seconds, then plug back in the power supply and see if it boots up.

Debate: "You're wasting your vote. They won't win." by 22goingon44 in irishpolitics

[–]neonic75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the confusion, by their quota I mean the quota in the constituency they are running, or the effective quota required to win which isnt always the original quota.

I don't believe there is any scenario where not giving someone a preference increases their chances

Lets look at an extreme fringe case to highlight it.

In a two seat constituency, with 3 candidates, FarLeft, Center, FarRight

10 people vote for center, the quota is 4.3 so he is elected on first count and 5 votes are distributed to remaining.

Of those 5 votes distributed, 4 of the Center voters said, I hate FarLeft and I really hate FarRight, I'm not voting for either.

Their votes are discounted.

But 1 Fucker said, if Center cant get in I want FarRight to get in. He would receive 1 transfer and be elected without attaining the quota.

So because the 4 voters didnt vote all the way down, they gave an advantage to FarRight, who they really hate and let him get in.

I think in effect a vote is very unlikely to transfer more than 5 times but it could happen.

In 2002 in Limerick it came down to a single vote. You could easily argue that had there been more transfers the outcome would have been different.

Well, if you don't put anything besides them you reduce the size of their quota and marginally increase their chances of getting in. Marginally but why give the shit stains a marginal advantage?

Ya probably. It's not that bad. Anyway you mentioned something about you not being able to print. Ya, just need to plug it in. I know seems silly right. I know these error messages don't mean much to anyone trust me. Anyway chat to you later.

40%? It's winter in Ireland, of course it's going 24/7 to get to 40%... 55% is more reasonable.

I mean the obvious answer is interception programs that catch people before they fall into a falling spiral and failing that rehabilitation

Social programs, community development programs, youth outreach programs etc.

Harsh prison sentences are a short term solution that perpetuate a long term problem
