Hi Greg,

Also, am I the only one bothered by winners having less than 50%? If so, we can leave it as it is.
What concerns me more is that the number of members voting is going down drastically.
In 2010 we had 41.2% of the members voting In 2011 we had 40.8% of the members voting In 2012 we had 29.2% of the members voting.
This year we lost almost 12% of our voting members. The question is why ? According to c.o.o, we have 534 Community Members. One can ask if these are all active members, but it seems that either the number of our active members is shrinking, members are somehow fed up with the election process or that this year despite the big number of candidates members rather not vote as that it is not possible to cast blank votes (no candidate).
I know there are some members that have left the community - which is a natural step. Some might have changed jobs, died etc. The question is to how many members does this apply, I'll doubt there's a single reason.
