Ten Questions on One Alberta Ballot, and Most Plan to Answer All of Them
Ipsos found that 76 per cent of Albertans are aware there are several questions in the upcoming referendum, and 62 per cent plan to vote on all 10 of them, Global News reports. Ten questions is an unusual shape for a referendum. Instead of one verdict on one proposition, voters are asked to arrive holding ten positions at once, and most of those surveyed say they intend to fill in the whole thing. The distance between knowing the ballot is crowded and committing to answer every part of it is the more interesting number of the two.

Ten questions is a stamina test more than a vote — it asks for ten judgments where one is the norm.
Or it is ten separate chances to be counted: someone unsure about one question still gets to answer the other nine.
The format only works if people actually finish it, which is what makes the 62 per cent figure worth watching.
