I would love to divide the votes up into states. If you want to start having people vote with their state/territory listed, I will do the leg work to add up the “delegate totals”

Example:
Vote Cruz Texas
Vote Trump New York

I don’t want to add one thing in here that we’ll start bickering about.

My state went solid. Look at yours.

Let me consider it. I have a noted difficulty in warming up to other people’s ideas sometimes, so let me think about this.

Here is my initial reaction, but I don’t want to discourage you or say it is a bad idea that I’ll never go for. I might.

Do you have any idea how hard it was just to get folks to enter “Vote Name”? Seriously. I haven’t gotten them to conform on the name yet. Then you want me to start worrying about how states will be spelled, abbreviated. I don’t even know all the state abbreviations. LOL

Do you have any idea how hard it as to get folks to refrain from political grandstanding on the thread?

None of this is a tallying issue. I run the numbers each night in about five minutes. Truth be told, I’ve started running them several hours early, then adding in any that come up after that.

What takes a few moment is creating graphics for the results post, then test and moving that to my web site.

I probably spend about 15 minutes on it total.

Over time I would like to run consensus votes on other topics.

That’s a very good suggestion.
