Workflow Vote Weighting Push Through

One of our workflows has a decision node with a vote weighting of 2, people can vote status A, B or C, what would be great is if once 2 people have voted the workflow pushes through to the lowest vote, current we have to use the vote admin settings to push the workflow through

    Just upvoted this - we're currently going through the process of setting up a Workflow and realised the current voting system doesn't accommodate this. I believe the easiest method to implement would be to allocate a weighting to each vote. e.g. Status A = 3, Status B = 2, Status C = 1, then you can have a scenario where you can push the document out into the 'lowest' status based on the score.

    We are experiencing a similar issue. We want the negative or lowest vote to be recognized as the out come. Therefore if two users vote status A and one user votes status B then it would automatically go to the lowest/negative vote status B. This is not happening. What is also conflicting is that we use a default vote of Status A if the subcontractors do not vote within the 14 days . However this also appears to be conflicting with equal voting situations like the following: 1 user votes status A and the other votes status B  - 4Ps automatically pushes it to status A. Surely there should be separate mechanism to differentiate the logical outcome?? (that being the node would turn to status B)
