Thanks for thinking of me but I’ll have to pass on that honor.
-Don

Thank you for declining early instead of later.

I had not mentioned it, but since the candidates do not volunteer, they need not accept the position.
Votes for Don will not count and cannot be transferred to another candidate.

Whoa. I'd REALLY better slow down on the comments. Can't believe I'm on this list!!!


I need to know what platform each candidate is running on. Any chance each one can post their prefered tool affliction along with their gun :Gun1:of choice? Might make voting a little easier....


If (by some further miracle) I'm elected, I promise to do my best to uphold the fine tradition...

...who am I kidding? Maybe I'll start a new trend and inject comic relief and heckle everyone's picks???

d42jeep has been removed from the poll so as to avoid confusion.
I'm not sure if the people that voted that name can revote now?

To the best of my memory (I wish I had screenshots), the alteration has awarded d42jeep’s 7 votes to bmwrd0, contradicting my earlier assertion that they would not count and would not be transferred.
I have no opposition to bmwrd0 winning, but certainly, there is no reason to assume all (or even any) of the members who voted for d42 would have voted for bmw.
Because of the (apparently) unintended transfer, I would guess that those members cannot revote in the current configuration.
It does seem like an odd default behavior for a poll. A more logical responsive behavior to eliminating a choice would be the negation of those votes and the opportunity for those members to revote, as you suggest.

LS, it didn't I had it up and it was 47 total votes, and on reload D42 was gone and the count was 40

Thanks, Outlaw! I guess you had viewed it more recently than I had done.

Well, my platform to turn this into a Night at the Improv has garnered exactly zero additional votes, so maybe the plan is working, lol???

I trust that this new vote-counting dilemna won't result in a court case...
