It would be great if countries got the same number of votes as their number of World Cup appearances. So the likes of Germany, Italy, England would get 15+ votes while countries with zero or one appearance would get just one vote.

I'd rather see a public vote based similarly to World Cup representatives by federation.

CAF 5
AFC 5
OFC .5
UEFA 13
CONCACAF 3.5
CONMEBOL 4.5

A weighted system probably makes more sense.

It's all up to Asia. Africa loves Sepp. They'd make him a saint in a heartbeat.

Yep, did you see the vigor with which some of the African reps were applauding after Sepp's speach?

Based on the music, Sepp's got hookers in the booths to lube the deals.

Is anyone else expecting the delegates to receive a brown envelope when they leave the voting booth?

African countries are his slaves. Not the same as love.

What gets me is all of the small non-nations that have full-fledged FAs and get a vote (i.e. American Samoa, Faroe Islands, Guam, Hong Kong, etc.)
