BaydoganMirac3- Majority judgment
The Majority judgment is a voting system designed to elect a winner based on the evaluation of all candidates by the voters. This system was shown to significantly reduce strategic and dishonest votes.
Indeed, this procedure offers several advantages over existing alternatives :
- It allows voters to truly say how they feel about all candidates. This is a strong improvement over the widespread first-past-the-post electoral systems (AKA single-member plurality voting), where only one candidate must be chosen, and the voter can not express any opinion about the others.
- By allowing voters to grade each candidate there is no Vote splitting anymore.
- A voter can express strong judgment differences by exploiting the entire range of grades, or even give the same grade to candidates they equally value. None of these are possible in ranked voting systems, in which candidates are simply ordered by preference.
- The need for Tactical voting is nullified
- It does not suffer from Condorcet's paradox
- By using common language to grade the candidates instead of a ranking them and assuming the question of the poll is precise, it avoids Arrow's impossibility theorem.

PollN is an interactive presentation software for real-time audience engagement and feedback. Users can use PollN for live polling, quizzes, and surveys.
The user must create an account, create a project and add at least one question to the project. The user will then be able to gather responses from one or more respondent in the following way:
- Live polling: The users can present the project and gather the answers live. The respondents will scan the QR code on the first page of the presentation, which will lead them to the project's questions. The users can see how many responses were received. When the users move on to the second presentation slide, the poll will be closed. The next presentation slides will be an analysis of the gathered questions.
- Sending the poll link: The user can open the poll and send the link to the project per email, WhatsApp or any preferred mean. The user can close the poll to see the results in table-format. The users can download the results in Excel (CSV), and re-open the poll to gather the next set of answers should they want to.
The users can ask three type of questions: open-ended, question and answer (Q&A), or multiple-choice. The questions of type Q&A must have a correct answer, and multiple-choice may or may not have a correct answer. The user can also control the order in which questions appear in a poll by dragging elements into the desired position.
Users can allow for anonymous answers or request a password to access the poll. They may also choose if they want the respondents to see the answers (to questions where a correct answer was given) after they submitted their answers.
Respondents can access the poll in 3 different ways: scanning the QR code with their phones (during a presentation), via the poll link, or inputting the poll code in the specified field on the homepage. Polls can only be accesed when they are open.
The user can close a poll any time. Poll opening and closing will happen automatically during a presentation. Polls can also get closed when the user makes changes to the structure of the project, such as adding/editting questions, editting the project, or changing the question order.
