On: To Build a Better Ballot

I think explaining score voting is pretty easy you just have only 3 categories labeled ️(1) (2) (3) for each candidate and they put a mark on what they think for each one. As an aside I susspect that having more than 3 or 4 catagoreis isn't a good idea and creates false precision that complicates things.

You want a zero based scale to avoid confusion, preferably with an even number of scores. 0-5 or 0-9 is good.

is it 1,2,3 or 3,2,1?

you underestimate interface design for a billion people in 20 different languages and in symbols that can be understood by illiterate citizens.

fyi, election symbols (like lotus, bicycle, broom) are mandatory in Indian elections for people who cannot read.

The American concept of voter registration is fairly puzzling.
