This is something that could be made a useful part of the voting 
application itself.  If the aggregate results are available after the 
fact (I believe this is set per election now) then other analysis of the 
aggregate results also seems fair.  But it does require that someone 
wants to code this.  So there's two parts to this question:

1) Does the Board agree that this processing and dissemenation of 
aggregate data is fine?

2) Does Nigel want to add this to the election software or allow someone 
else to add it?
