Huh, 47 people wanted to not be in heat and humidity in May.
That can't be extrapolated from the results.
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
That can't be extrapolated from the results.
True. Nor can we extrapolate that this is not the case. But with ranking, we could! For such situations, where no option gets close to 50% of the vote, was preferential voting designed!!
Nah, just ignore me. I can't attend the next one anyway. Ranking gave us the Sydney Olympics.
Sorry. Stopping now.

Perhaps some people decided that there were other things to consider than the weather.

I voted for KC instead of NO because a)KC is cheaper and b)I've been to NO and liked it and been to KC and not liked it, so I wanted to give KC a second chance. That said, the heat in NO didn't really enter into it -- I figure it's only three days, and we probably won't be outside THAT much. And I say that as someone who's pretty heat-sensitive.
(I wouldn't have minded ranking, though.)

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I didn't vote for NO and I have to admit, the NO heat was a factor in mine; my neuro says it's one of the worst climates in America if you have MS.
Beyond that, other reasons, definitely, but for me, the weather was, in fact, a factor.

I'll hate the weather at that time of year, but plan to be too inebriated to mind all that much. Plus, it's an excuse to wear skimpier clothing.

I'll hate the weather at that time of year, but plan to be too inebriated to mind as much.
It's an excellent strategy to cope with losing a vote, and you might get to use it again later in the year.

For all you NO haters:
Long before the Superdome,
Where the Saints of football play,
There's a city where the damned call home,
Hear their hellish rondelet:
New Orleans!
Home of pirates, drunks, and whores...
New Orleans!
Tacky, overpriced souvenir stores...
If you want to go to hell, you should take a trip
To the Sodom and Gomorrah of the Mississip':
New Orleans!
Stinking, rotten, vomiting, vile...
New Orleans!
Putrid, brackish, maggotty, foul...
New Orleans!
Crummy, lousy, rancid and rank...
New Orleans!
