I was just thinking of postposing the end-of-vote cron job, so
no re-voting would be needed.
If there is sufficient support, we could also scrap the current
vote, change our ballot, add options to it, or something, and restart
the vote, but that would need a strong grass roots support (I do not
think the secretary has the power to do so).
