When we send more reminders, people complain about the "election |
| 12 |

Personally, I'm more than happy to send out one email every 48hrs for |
| 17 |
two weeks if it gets more people to vote. However, that probably isn't |
| 18 |
the case. I think we need some creative ideas :) |

Speaking personally, I did notice a lack of motivation this time |
| 26 |
around amongst the candidates. Few people really wrote a manifesto. |

Hard to vote for or against someone when you don't know where they |
| 28 |
stand on various issues, and what their plan of action is. |
