VoteKit v0.12.0

VoteKit v0.12.0

VoteKit v0.12.0 addresses GitHub feedback #4 through #8.

Voter and administrator experience

• Form fields remain readable when a device prefers dark mode.
• Holders of valid private voting links or anonymous codes now see the election
  name and scheduled opening time before voting opens. Invalid visitors still
  receive the non-disclosing generic response.
• Election creation requires a deliberate fixed Australia/Brisbane closing
  time instead of silently pre-filling a deadline from the start of setup.

Ballot publication privacy

• New and existing elections use a minimum public anonymous-ballot threshold
  of 20 by default.
• Owners may choose a higher threshold or explicitly choose always-publish
  while an election remains a draft. The setting is locked after opening and
  every change is audited.
• Aggregate outcomes remain available when individual ballots are suppressed.
• Private receipt lookup remains available for encrypted complete-ballot
  receipts and legacy per-question receipts below the public threshold.

Alternative counts

• Owners and Returning Officers can run IRV or Condorcet against a closed
  ranked ballot set without replacing the declared result.
• Every count run records its algorithm and settings, result snapshot, IRV tie
  decisions, creator, time, frozen ballot-set fingerprint and result
  fingerprint.
• Alternative counts appear on the results page and in PDF and CSV exports.
• Unresolved IRV ties pause for the existing audited tie-resolution workflow;
  the continued count is stored as a new immutable run.

Verification

• 103 automated tests passed, with one environment-gated migration rehearsal
  run separately against a private production database copy.
• Lint, type checking, production build, regression checks and dependency audit
  passed.
