Yeah, OK.  Just read your reason in the new FidoNews.

Seems to me that not voting doesn't accomplish anything, save
perhaps making you feel better or that you "took a stand".

If you really were not in favor of some/all of the candidates,
wouldn't a "NO" vote have sent a better message, and perhaps had
an influence on the outcome?

Is it allowable for somebody (you) to actively "campaign" against
somebody?  Like do some public advertisements stating why you feel
they should not be elected?

Certainly some private Netmails to other RCs could have been sent,
right?

Perhaps you didn't want others to know that you were against
particular candidates?

Anyway... it's over until the next election.  Thanks for at least
writing up the reason for publication.
