OpaVote

If none of you have played with it yet (opavote.com) you really should check it out. The Radical Caucus uses it for their multi-seat elections and it will calculate various types of RCV/IRV voting.. but what I just discovered is that you can use it to tally a ballot you have already done. Like at last LNC meeting when we did RCV if there wasn't anyone who could do it fast. The LPCO is using it now to select its Platform Committee appointments. -- *In Liberty,* *Caryn Ann Harlos* Region 1 Representative, Libertarian National Committee (Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Kansas, Montana, Utah, Wyoming, Washington) - Caryn.Ann.

Feedback on LP religion poll / tracking?
by Starchild 16 Dec '17

16 Dec '17

Hi Wes, When I attempted to click through from today's Libertarian email to the poll on religion, I got an error page indicating there was a tracker being used: chrome://ublock0/content/document-blocked.html?details=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwOi8vY2xpY2suaWNwdHJhY2suY29tL2ljcC9yZWxheS5waHA/cj04NTUzMDAzNyZtc2dpZD02MDg4MjUmYWN0PThCQkkmYz0xMTE1MTA4JmRlc3RpbmF0aW9uPWh0dHAlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cubHAub3JnJTJGd2hhdC1yZWxpZ2lvbi1hcmUtbGliZXJ0YXJpYW5zJTJGIiwiaG4iOiJjbGljay5pY3B0cmFjay5jb20iLCJkbiI6ImljcHRyYWNrLmNvbSIsImZjIjoiWzAsNjIsXCJpY3B0cmFjay5jb21cIl0iLCJmcyI6Inx8aWNwdHJhY2suY29tXiJ9 What type of tracking are these emails employing? I do not think we should be tracking people's clicks without their consent. On the poll itself (I went directly to LP.org and found it there at https://www.lp.org/what-religion-are-libertarians/) I have a recommendation for an additional response category – Transhumanist. This may not ultimately be the most precise term for my own religious views, which also encompass non-aggression and decentralism/individualism, but as a "none of the above" respondent, I feel it would fit me better than any of the terms currently listed, and suspect there may be a few others who feel similarly. For anyone curious about the religious aspects of transhumanism, this page has some good material: http://www.metanexus.net/essay/toward-transhumanist-theology Finally, I would also urge that the poll response choices be listed in alphabetical order (with the exception of leaving "Decline to state" and "None of the above" at the bottom), rather than all the Christian options being listed first.

Thanks, Wes. On click-tracking, I think the devil if any is in the details. Is it telling staff only that someone clicked on an email, or is it compiling data on the habits of specific individuals, i.e. which kinds of emails they open, etc.? I am hesitantly okay with the former, but not the latter, unless an individual explicitly opts in to that kind of tracking. If you want to lump all the Christian options together, you can still do that without putting them at the top of the list, by making them sub-categories of the "Christian" entry. I agree it's not easy to determine what is and what isn't a religion, and therefore what options to include or not include in such a poll. I think many people today do have more religious attitudes about environmentalism, statism, etc., than they do about Christianity or other traditional religions. In such a milieu, following member requests of categories to include based on how they wish to identify seems sensible. Love & Liberty, ((( starchild ))) At-Large Representative, Libertarian National Committee RealReform(a)earthlink.net P.S. – Since the "email cutover", I have not been receiving the LNC list emails. Or more specifically, I was receiving what I presume were all the emails sent to the reflector list up until last Sunday's meeting (they showed up in my In Box without the headers), but now as best I can determine I am receiving only emails sent to the LNC-votes list, via the reflector list, but not emails sent to the LNC-business list. Ken Moellman said he'd get with me to work on the issue a bit later this evening; hopefully we will be able to resolve the problem. Are other people subscribed to the reflector list receiving the emails, I wonder?
