Script Summary: Enables the "View vote counts" feature on the Stack Exchange websites, without requiring any reputation or an account.
Version: 1.5.2
Vote counts on the Stack Exchange
The vote counts are a great tool to determine whether an answer on one of the Stack Exchange (SE) websites is useful (disputed) or not. Unfortunately, not many of us have enough time to join all of the SE websites and get 1000 reputation.
This script (and Chrome extension in the Chrome Web Store) adds the View Vote counts feature to each SE site. If you've already sufficient reputation to view the Vote counts, the script does not affect that particular site.
