Hi folks,

ElectoramaWeekly for May 20 has been published:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Msq9aZA7VAI

In this week's episode, Taylor Eigen Fisher, Carlo Estefano, and I took a
closer look at Ohio SB395 (the bill proposing Condorcet elections in Ohio),
which you can read about on electowiki:
https://electowiki.org/wiki/Ohio#SB395

A slightly overlapping group of folks also attended this month's
ElectoramaCall, where we discussed future work both on the ElectoramaNews
newsletter, and possible topics for ElectoramaWeekly (e.g. folks for us to
interview).  One thing we discussed in the latter part of the call was
possibly focusing on software (both on ElectoramaWeekly and
ElectoramaNews).  As a result, I've done a bit of work on the "Software"
page on electowiki:
https://electowiki.org/wiki/Software

What software is missing from that page?  Is there any software that
deserves to be highlighted by ElectoramaNews and/or ElectoramaWeekly (and
if so, why)?  Is software a good topic, or should we instead focus on one
of the other topics we discussed (e.g. the gutting of the Voting Rights
Act)?

Rob
