Who says the elections are going to be fair? From what I know about Spez they aren’t going to be.

Somehow I just don’t think I’d trust that voting system…

Totally agree.

For a given sub, how many accounts map to individuals vs bots/fake accounts? For real accounts, how many of those actively engage with the sub? This is not a problem for ‘controlled’ user accounts. The legitimacy of any vote will be suspect…no way around that.

Are you suggesting that it could get corrupted, so as to favor a person or group of persons? But they’d still have their content, and isn’t that what really matters there?

Bold of you to assume that Reddit would want to spend money on moderator hires. They’d just recruit some fake-power-hungry bootlicker who will follow, for free, the admins’ instructions.
