If "more interesting" results are required, I suppose the ballots cast in the Debian voting could be used for analysis instead. I think Rob Lanphier mentioned this in Election Method message 1176. Debian now use Condorcet Schwartz Sequential Dropping for electing project leaders and for proposals/referenda and have been for a year or two. Interesting to note that a couple of past Election Methods contributors have been involved with Debian...
