so on the nminations page it said that voting would be to the end of october, so off to us, finally get net up on the start of october, and voting is over ?
surly the returning officer and those responisble for running this 'election' should apologise to the voters and the candidates for changing these dates ?

Very sorry. Yet another reason why I won't be doing anything like this again.

Actually I was wondering, seeing as this *was* under proportional representation one can't really gripe. However, who would have one *if* the election had been held under FPTP?

Hypatia still would have won with first past the post. She had 78 votes out of 208 (37.5%) and would have easily beat the next lead candidates, Gnomon and Jack who were on 22 votes (10.58%) each. You were on 18 votes (8.65%).

But I'd have gone up a rank to 4th.
Hmmm. 
Bring back FPTP!!!!
