Ballot Type: Hybrid

Submitted: Nov. 25, 2024, 2:39 a.m.

Overall Rationale: I've created a predictive computer ranking system that I use for my base results. I've been continually upgrading and adjusting it for 3 years now. I still include a human touch to the results, to ensure "intangibles" are able to be accounted for.
