I don't think it's a good idea to give someone such information unless
*everyone* gets it.
I can understand not wanting to make the information public, although
just releasing a breakdown of the number of votes made seems harmless.
For instance, something like:
0 votes: 12
1 vote: 56
2 votes: 23
3 votes: 98
4 votes: 42
5 votes: 33
6 votes: 23
7 votes: 21
8 votes: 44
9 votes: 65
I'm not sure how useful that's going to be, it'd certainly be *more
useful* to know the actual correlations, but it'd be somewhat useful
to see how many people are voting exactly 1 vote, or exactly 3
candidates, or 0 candidates, or n-1 candidates, or n candidates (where
n is the total number of candidates, which I believe was 12).
Next time, we need exit polls :).
It may be interesting to see how many people voted for exactly three
candidates. In some discussions in the early days of the votation a few
people on it.wp were convinced that they could cast a maximum of three
votes.
