Bryen, I'm curious what the vote totals were. Not so much which candidate got what, but how the votes were spread out.
ie. Total votes: nnn cast Candidate #1: x votes #2: y votes etc.
The election results are public on connect: https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/polls/read/digitaltomm/42100/opensuse-board-...
Thanks, That does indeed show my concern. The two winners only had 36% and 31% of the voters vote for them. I assume that's because such a big selection of truly good candidates. Again, I have no desire to change this year's process, but for future years an alternate solution would be my preference.

There are pros and cons, obviously." Is there software available to do the vote counting for STV? Also, am I the only one bothered by winners having less than 50%? If so, we can leave it as it is.
