Seeing these numbers, it seems to me that any of Options 2-6 passed about
with the same majority (with preference for the lower numbers), and the
only reason why Option 5 won was because of the majority requirements as
set by the secretary.

What this voting seems to show is that clearly a majority doesn't want to
stop the release of Lenny. What it also shows however is that the mixing up
of the other options on this ballot and the way the supermajority
requirements were set is problematic, and probably supporters of any other
option than 1 (and perhaps also except 6) can claim that they would've won
if the majority requirements were set in a way they consider more
appropriate.


Cheers,
Andi
