# Voting at chemistry.se is less

Why there is not as much as voting to questions and answers as in other stack exchange sites like overflow or information security? Why users do not cast their votes even its simple?

• I'd like to see how you reached this conclusion. – M.A.R. Apr 5 '16 at 9:06
• @IͶΔ. See this it has 4K upvotes stackoverflow.com/questions/6841333/… – JM97 Apr 5 '16 at 9:08
• $\ldots$ and 371751 views. $$\frac{4149}{371751} = 0.0111$$ This question on our site has 120 votes and 12391 views. $$\frac{120}{12391} =0.0096$$ Contrast this to the fact that more votes make a bigger difference in the ratio than views, and the question on Chemistry is 3 years younger than SO's question. Let's also take into account the number of eligible voters since those questions were posted. Does your argument still hold? – M.A.R. Apr 5 '16 at 9:13
• @IͶΔ So you want to say that I should have asked why the voting per view(density or concentration or per user) is more on chemistry.se? – JM97 Apr 5 '16 at 11:08
• No, you shouldn't have asked anything when there's no issue. Anyway, if there's to be a good outcome out of this, it's that people start voting more, esp. OP. – M.A.R. Apr 5 '16 at 11:11
