Let $G$ be a simple graph. Consider all weightings of the vertices of $G$ with real numbers whose total sum is nonnegative. How many edges of $G$ have endpoints with a nonnegative sum? We consider the minimum number of such edges over all such weightings as a graph parameter. Computing this parameter has been shown to be NP-hard but we give a polynomial algorithm to compute the minimum of this parameter over realizations of a given degree sequence. We also completely determine the minimum and maximum value of this parameter for regular graphs.
