my greatest concern is the idea that not voting is the same as a no vote. I can't recall another instance in history where abstaining from voting was equated to a no vote (although it may have the same impact). This would imply that every single member was aware of the vote. While I am certain they would all receive an email or message with a call to vote - we couldn't then guarantee that they actually received or even read that call. While we could suggest that this is their problem, again - at the risk of repeating myself - I cannot see how a vote can equate a missing vote as a no vote.
Chase Crum | Sr. Architect This technically is not a vote, it's a petition. We have such in parliament in NL: Secretary of Whatever lies to the members of parliament Member(s) call for no-confidence vote Majority Yes? Secretary has to go That is all No "no" vote, no "Abstain". Same goes for f.e. petitions by Amnesty International, FSFE and so on, One either signs or doesn't. Same here with the voting on the point "if a referendum on Whatever should be held". Law says you need X people to call for it. One signs or doesn't.
