Ask HN: Review my twist on a voting app (modernballots.com)

2 points by bradbeattie ↗ HN
Hey folks, I've been working lately on a new app that takes recent developments in electoral systems and tries to expose that to the end user in a friendly way.

It's similar to others in that you can create, share, vote and review your poll. It's different in that it isn't using Plurality, Approval or anything like that. It's working off of an implementation of Schulze STV that I open sourced a few weeks back.

Anywho, I'm wondering where to take this. I see sites like polldaddy.com charging $200/year for their services and think that there's wiggling room to work with here. Any feedback would be sweet. Thanks!
