'''Electowidget''' is a PHP4 library (initally a plugin for MediaWiki) designed to make it possible to conduct Internet polls and elections using many different [[wikipedia:Voting systems|voting systems]], including the [[Wikipedia:Schulze method|Schulze method]], [[Wikipedia:Instant runoff voting|Instant runoff voting]], [[Wikipedia:Approval voting|Approval voting]], and even plain old [[Wikipedia:Plurality|Plurality]].
It was in active development in 2005, with additional development as late as 2009, but has not seen updates since then.
If development resumes, information will be available at https://electorama.com/electowidget
== Example ==
Here's an example of a call to the very, very crude Electowidget Lua module
<code>
<nowiki>
{{#invoke:Electowidget|get_data}}
</nowiki>
</code>
The beginning of the results should look something like the following:
<code>
{
"version":"0.1",
"candidates":
{
"Kiss":
{
"display_name":"Bob Kiss (Progressive)"
},
"Montroll":
{
"display_name":"Andy Montroll (Democrat)"
},
</code>
...and then continue to spill all of the JSON from [[2009 Burlington, Vermont Mayoral Election data]].
As of 2023-09-12, [[User:RobLa]] is focusing most of his work on [[ABIF]], and mostly on the Python tooling. However, there is a start on a Lua-based implementation of ABIF over on the "[[Module:ABIF]]" page.
