If the board is five members and there are only 5 candidates, I see no point in voting...
Only two positions are to be filled via the current election. The entire board is not elected or re-elected at one time.
But this is not said in the voting page!
It isn't?
https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/polls/read/pluskalm/52970/opensuse-board-ele... says "Two seats are contested in this election, meaning each openSUSE member has two votes to cast."
No, it doesn't. I was told to go to:
https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/polls/read/pluskalm/52970/opensuse-board-ele...
where it says (loaded yesterday night):
«Welcome to the election of the 2017 openSUSE board. The board consists of one appointed chairperson and 5 elected members who may serve up to 2 consecutive terms on the board.
To clarify - Each openSUSE member has TWO VOTES they can use for this election
Note that no single organization or company can control more than 40 percent of the electable board seats (more than 2 seats). Please read the full description of the election process.»
Notice that the words "two seats" is not there. I reload the page and now it says:
«Welcome to the election of the 2017 openSUSE board. The board consists of one appointed chairperson and 5 elected members who may serve up to 2 consecutive terms on the board. Two seats are contested in this election, meaning each openSUSE member has two votes to cast.

So someone has changed the page today. Thankyou for that, but that person could have replied to my post saying that and thus stop the discussion.
