metrics about elections.

Thanks for your patience on a reply and thanks for starting this thread,
Alberto! I'm also CCing Jan to this thread as the election wrangler (not
sure if he is subscribed to the list or not).
## Voting badge
I love the idea of a voting badge, especially if we take the Nuancier
approach. For anyone reading, Nuancier is the tool used for the
supplementary wallpapers every release. Nuancier waits until a user
submits votes on wallpapers, and then gives them a claim URL for the
badge. This approach would work well for elections too since it doesn't
connect a FAS account to voting preference or any public data.
The next question I ask is whether this should be a new badge for every
round of elections or just one universal badge for all elections. I
prefer a new badge for every election, but ensuring there is a process
to update the election app for this every election is important.
## Nominee AMAs
Since members of the Fedora community have moderator privileges Reddit's
/r/Fedora, I like the idea of running this. Jan needs to confirm if this
is possible for this round or not.
I think this change needs more time to communicate and a date should
have been set before the first election announcement. I prefer waiting
for F29 to try this, but it doesn't mean we can't get a system in place now.
Thoughts?
