Perhaps a compromise?

Perhaps not made public, but attaching a developer/ statistician/ mathematician
/ wearer of funny hats   temporarily to the election committee
to do some statistical wrangling should be possible without TOO much trouble,
I'd think.

We can then all look at the statistics (s)he's making, and maybe ask them more
questions, as necessary, without any of the worries of making the actual result-set
public.

read you soon,
