Obviously, your world is more black and white than mine, or you lump natural gas, propane, etc. all below all versions of electric. Gas falls between 2 distinct electric technologies on my preference scale. The majority of the electric ranges are the kind I prefer less than gas but there is a specific, not very popular subset, I like more than gas.

I'm on the opposite end of the scale; I haven't cooked on gas in 20 years, and all I have is a cheapo $350 Frigidaire electric stove. It does the job, parts(I haven't bought any for this one in 6 years that I've owned it) are pretty cheap, and easy to replace, and if the circuit board fries, I just buy another one. For $350.  ;)

I guess induction is nice, but all my pans are aluminum...... ::)

I gotta side with slaga on this. Radiant and induction as two vastly different technologies, even though they are both powered by electricity. They are as similar as a basic electric oven and microwave oven. If your poll is trying to determine preference, many might prefer gas over radiant, but induction over either.  I have no idea the percentage of households that have induction ,but guess it's pretty low.

I guess I am black and white also.  If you prefer induction over everything, you prefer electricity over gas.
