This has been a problem before. User A will vote on a vote that's pretty new. One and 3/4 days later, User B will vote, and no matter his/her vote choice, everyone will have to wait another 2 days to vote. I don't think telling people not do revive dying votes with help. I've done it before.

Even if no users lengthen the timer by voting, 2 days is a long time to wait. It only gives more time for things like this to happen. 80% majority has happened maybe once or twice, and with how big the community is, maybe "twice" is a generous estimate.

I propose we make the time required to pass before a vote reaches a consensus only one day (24 hours) instead of two (48 hours).

A: Yes, shorten vote end timer.

B: No, do not shorten the vote end timer.
