No such votes recorded in this session.

For data nerds: weighted agreement M2 and Cohen's κ

Weighted agreement (metric M2 per METHOD.md) weights each vote by how contested it was: w = 1 − |yes − no| / voting. Lopsided votes have weights near zero (e.g. 170:3 has weight ~0.03), while close votes carry high weight (e.g. 90:80 has weight ~0.94). Cohen's κ (kappa) additionally corrects for chance agreement given each country's marginal vote distributions.
