Right, so I went a bit on a rampage, so we now have:
- Single Transferable Vote
- Yes/No/Abstain
- D'Hont / Jefferson voting
- Multiple Non-Transferable Votes (Plurality-at-large)
- First Past the Post (whoever gets most votes wins, Prez elections etc)
all with setup, editing, voting, tallying in working condition.
Any requests? :)
With regards,
Daniel.

This is not a complete API yet, but if you look at the libs/plugins
dir, you should get the gist of what I'm trying to do; making
validation and tallying a function native to the plugins instead of
trying to pull everything into election.py. This way we can add new
vote types as we see fit, and people can enable/disable what they want
to use.
There is still some work left, as different vote types have different
data fields associated with them, and I expect to be able to address
that in the coming days. This will likely mean breaking the previously
established JSON structure a bit.
I've also added the D'Hondt (Jefferson) based voting system to the
list of supported votes types, and I plan to add more vote types as
the days go by.
WIth regards,
Daniel.
