I just had a brainwave about how to address low voter turnout in local body elections in Aotearoa. Could the solution be liquid democracy?
One reason people don't vote in local elections is that we don't really know who the candidates are. But most of us know at least one person who shares our values, and is really engaged in council politics. What if there was a simple, formally recognised way to delegate our vote to them?

There was a surprisingly effective twist on this approach in a local election manifesto recently, and the candidates had mild traction in pockets on polling day.

> a smartphone app or a website, on which everyone votes for every little policy
Sounds good to me. We could eliminate an expensive layer of besuited spokesmodels and PR spindoctors, who provide no real value to anyone but themselves. Instead, public servants could carry out whatever policies get a supermajority in a weekly of monthly batch of digital referenda.
#LiquidFeedback anyone?

1 Aktie = 1 Stimme in Aktiengesellschaften ist offensichtlich suboptimal, siehe #BlackRock.
1 Stimme pro Person, unabhängig vom Betrag des eingezahlte Kapitals (K), bei vielen #Genossenschaften, erscheint mir aber auch anfällig für Störung z.B. von Leuten mit viel Tagesfreizeit.Kennt jemand Organisationen, die log(K) oder so machen? Z.B. um Zeit- & Geld-Einsatz zu balancieren. Oder gleich #LiquidFeedback?

@richdecibels Great Interview - thanks! <3
You mention that there was/is no alternative software systems for decision making except #loomio. As I remember it, #adhocracy and #LiquidFeedback tried to tackle similar challenges. Do you have an opinion on #LiquidDemocracy?

@Perugiasostenibile Qui bisogna distinguere con molta attenzione due ambiti spesso confusi: quelli delle piattaforme di democrazia partecipativa e quelli delle piattaforme deliberative.
#Decidim si pone all'interno del primo ambito. #Liquidfeedback si colloca nel secondo.
Decidim per esempio è perfetto per fare in modo che le decisioni politiche degli enti locali o centrali vengano elaborate in trasparenza e in partecipazione con tutta la comunità degli amministrati. Gli amministrati possono commentare, porre dei like, addirittura avviare petizioni e partecipare ad assemblea virtuali.
Non si tratta tuttavia di una piattaforma deliberativa e, infatti, la possibilità di portarla all'interno di un partito per dotare i propri iscritti di uno strumento deliberativo è secondo me completamente sbagliata e ingannevole: la dirigenza del partito Infatti può utilizzare la moderazione di quella piattaforma addirittura per amplificare il proprio potere e, invece che per condividerlo con i propri compagni di partito.

Kennst du eine Instanz/url, die #liquidfeedback Prozesse ermöglicht? Bin wegen einer anderen idee interessiert, partizipative Entscheidungsprozesse zu ermöglichen und finde keine Installation.

Ich bin auf der Suche nach einer freien Instanz von #liquidfeedback https://liquidfeedback.org/
Kennt jemand eine?

@clacke @klaatu The AGPL license was my main contribution to #Loomio (the team originally licensed it "MIT"). It's the only dedicated decision-making app I've used and for my needs it's better than email lists or web forums for that purpose. YYMV. I'm curious to test others like #LiquidFeedback when I get the chance. But if all you really need is the ability to have in-depth conversations and go back through their histories easily, a web forum is simpler. The Diaspora team switched from Loomio to Discourse some time back for that reason. BTW Sorry for the slow reply, I never saw this at the time as my Friendica account is only a testpot so far. I've been more commonly found of late @strypey -
@bob @ente @webmind @pesco @rysiek @Wolf480pl then you put more energy into local elections, like community boards and councils, where the candidates represent much smaller numbers of people ;) Or you work on trying to get whole countries to use something like #LiquidFeedback for making country-scale decisions, but I talked to an ex-MP about that once, and he made some good arguments about why it would be hard to make that work well. It's an intriguing topic, and one I'm always up for!

@Wolf480pl @rysiek @pesco @webmind @ente being able to delegate your franchise to a smart contract isn't an inherently stupid idea, at least for non-binding referenda. Arguably it's analogous to the way you can delegate your vote in #LiquidFeedback. The hard (maybe impossible) part would be figuring out how to encode your voting preferences in the smart contract in a way that can't be gamed
