Everyone,
I see on the official Footy international webpage
<http://footy.rcsailing.net/news.php>, that the ballot results and the revised rules have been posted. However, upon closer inspection, I see that the posted data DOES NOT agree with what I have read on this forum to be the final results of the recent election, but rather the initial interpretation (which was later corrected) that showed item #8c concerning sail rigs to have passed with 27 “yes” votes. Since 27 was not equal to a 50%+1 majority in an election with a 91 voter turnout, this motion was subsequently decreed to have not passed, but presently is indicated on the site as “passed”.
Can this be simply corrected on the site to reflect the actual ballot results, or does it require some sort of proverbial “act of Congress” to change it? Again we see the potential benefit of keeping all balloting as simple as possible…
