UPDATE: In the closest Shapeways poll ever held (but also the biggest landslide), the 3D print of Hillary Clinton had 3,445 votes to 3,412 votes for the 3D print of Donald Trump.
Next Monday marks the first debate between U.S. presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. For over a year (though it seems like much longer than that) the media has reported on poll after poll of the voting electorate to try and predict a winner in November 8th’s election.
Here at Shapeways we do polling a bit differently. Designer Tomislav Veg has designed 3D printed busts of each of the candidates, allowing us to do a very unscientific poll of our community. Here’s how it works:
Visit the product page of your favorite candidate (you can click on your favorite candidate’s bust above to vote), add it to your favorites and order it in one of the available materials. At the end of the day on Tuesday we’ll tally up votes as follows:
- 1 vote for every page view of a candidate’s product page
- 3 votes for every person that favorites the product
- 5 votes for every order of a candidate’s product
You have until the end of the day Tuesday September 27 to place your votes and we’ll announce the winner in the blog next week.
Happy Voting!
Vote for Hillary
Vote For Donald
Seems like you want to squeue the voting towards Hillery as you are charging a significantly higher price for Trump’s bust.
Not that I care about either candidate. I think both will do equally bad, stupid, horrendous, things while in office. I also think they both will try to do what they think is right. I just don’t trust either of them.
So how about a Mickey Mouse bust as this might be the first election that he wins the popular vote.
Hello William. The prices are now corrected and are equal. The reason why Trump bust was more expensive is cause it is little bigger. More materials need to be spent to make it. But now the price of Hillary is little more then it was, while Trump is cheaper to make make it equal, and to make this voting booth in true democratic spirit 🙂
