+
+Continuous voting is a system in which the vote occurs on a continuous or frequent basis, rather than during discrete election periods.
+
+**Input:** Ballot, randomized or universal electorate, easy mechanism for vote changing
+
+**Output:** Frequent or real-time results
+
+## Background
+
+Continuous voting mechanisms have been proposed in a variety of forms and contexts, though largely only since the advent of Internet technology that would streamline vote-changing and counting. [Delegation](delegation.md) systems like "liquid democracy" generally use continuous voting.
+
+Economics blogger Steve Randy Waldman [proposed](https://www.interfluidity.com/v2/7043.html) in 2018 a model by which random subsets of the electorate would be polled on their representatives at frequent intervals. The same year, BlockScience CEO Michael Zargham [proposed](https://github.com/BlockScience/conviction/blob/master/social-sensorfusion.pdf) a model called "conviction voting," in which votes grow stronger the longer the remain with a particular choice, and greater stake in the system increases vote strength, among other properties. It has been [adopted](https://medium.com/giveth/conviction-voting-34019bd17b10) as part of the blockchain-based Commons Stack project.

+## Feedback loops
+
+### Sensitivities
+
+* Provides feedback closer to real-time
+* Reduces spectacle around occasional ballots
+
+### Oversights
+
+* No fixed terms of elected cohorts, reducing ability to plan for a session in office
+* Can instill greater insecurity among elected representatives
+
+## Implementations
+
+### Communities
+
+* [Commons Stack](https://commons-stack.gitbook.io/wiki/) (in development)
+* Various pirate parties using liquid democracy
+
+### Tools
+
+* [Democracy Earth](https://democracy.earth) implements liquid democracy
