Yes, but you certainly meant to say:
if ((elapsed_days <= X) && ((quorum_reached == 0)||((quorum_reached == 1) && (24_hours_passed_since_quorum == 0))))
continue_voting ();
else
announce_results();
because in your algorithm quorum_reached == 0 would mean that the result of the whole boolean expression is 0 ("FALSE"), thus announce_results() would have to be performed. ;-)

Actually, this is even better :
if ( elapsed_days <= X || quorum_reached == 0 || 24_hours_passed_since_quorum == 0 )
{
continue_voting ();
}
else
{
announce_results();
}
As long as ONE of the 3 conditions is true, we keep voting.

Wow, that's right. Now I know that Miestrâ's way to express this was correct, and that I was about to read something into her sentence that hasn't been there. Thanks, M.-P. :-)
