I count eight nominees thus far (although I may be missing some). Out of those |
14 |
eight, there are only three that I'd consider giving a vote to. Others, I'm |
15 |
either indifferent to or not so indifferent. Of course, my vote is only one |
16 |
count. However, this raises two important questions. |

What if the number of nominees is less than or equal to the number of trustee |
19 |
positions? Of the people that are nominated, what happens if the total number |
20 |
of people that actually receive any votes is less than the number of trustee |
21 |
positions? |

To be clear, voting occurs for 168 hours beginning 10 May and ending 16 May? |
