Consultations dey collect opinions, and votes dey count dem. None of dem dey tok why problem dey come back again and again, and di complaint wey show pass dey usually win. For di US government Open Government Dialogue of 2009, di ideas wey get di most votes include to make marijuana legal and di President birth certificate, near calls make dem open di UFO files, and di agencies put idea voting aside: to sort wetin come in cost pass wetin e give (Farina et al., 2014). Council go end up with ranked list of grievances, and most of dem na results of sometin wey nobodi rank.
True Causes na structured deliberation platform. Residents dey write causes alone and without name, read and clarify each oda own, den judge for small rooms, pair by pair, whether one cause get big hand for anoda one. Link dey go di map only wen three quarters gree, and dem dey publish divide as divide. Di method na Structured Democratic Dialogue, wey pipo don dey use for citizens’ dialogues for fifty years.
E dey grow di way city dey grow. Each neighbourhood, school or ward fit open im own room for di same question wey dem publish; room fit open to one email domain, so di staff of council or di students of university no need anytin else to join; and di map of evri room dey fold enter one wey dey show di causes wey plenti rooms find on dia own. Evri link, vote count and room dey remain for di record, so anybodi fit read, check and cite di result.
