What’s the rush? Voting is a fundamental right of every citizen. This is the kind of argument people who stand to lose when all votes are counted restore to. Democracy takes time. Let it take time. There’s no rush.
I agree, but I also see a tradeoff: people instinctively feel a greater sense of agency when the effects of their actions are closer to the cause; if it comes weeks later it can seem more random even if it’s more reliable. Even if people know their votes counted, it can feel disempowering and depress future turnout.

Yeah. Voting should be a week long process at least, and anything other than a conclusive win should result in a run off.

The effects of the actions have to wait until January anyway.
