In light of our last and this election, I was wondering if it was possible to ask for a small breakdown of how the election went and what the average voter looked like.

I understand that keeping privacy in regard we can't ask or even consider a full breakdown of everything that happened.

However there are some questions I have that are probably answerable without too much issue.

1. How does rep figure in? Do lower rep people vote differently or not?
2. Where does the majority of the voters come from? Did they read more threads in meta or are they only interested in the election?
3. During the primary, how do most people spread their votes? Do they vote for a single person, some people or for everyone.
4. During the primary, how are down-votes used? Do people who down-vote spread their votes around? Are there people out there who only down-vote?
5. How does the traffic of the election compare to regular meta posts traffic, and to controversial meta posts?

As the votes are over 250, and our poor Evan Caroll has over a hundred down-votes, I'm sure these figures could be shown without compromising the anonymity of the vote.

I might be alone in my curiosity, but what can I say other than, I'm a cat person and I'd really like to know everything about anything shiny.
