JoeP noted that the turnout for this round of the election was very low (21 out of 82 possible voters). There were only 4 people who endorsed a ticket during the first round of voting, two of whom: Kat and Terry also nominated a ticket. One ticket didn’t receive any endorsements. Assuming all six people who ran, voted and voted for their own tickets, that the four endorsers also voted for the tickets they endorsed, and the other two people who nominated or seconded a ticket also voted, that leaves approximately 9 club members who voted who weren’t involved in the nominating, running or endorsing process of the election.
What does your ticket put this low voter turnout down to?
Do you believe this is representative of a larger problem that the club needs to deal with? Why/Why not?
Are there any changes your ticket thinks can/should be made to the election process that may improve it while ensuring the integrity of the process?
Do you think there is any truth to the rumours that a Stargate/Game of Thrones/Divergent coalition of RPers have hacked our system and influenced the result, as occurred in my dreams last night?
Thank you everyone … I look forward to your answers to my (mostly) serious set of questions.
