So that's all the votes in, by my count. Summary is: 4x D U O V F (bdale, russ, keith, don) F U D O V (steve) U D O F V (colin) F V O U D (ian) U F D O V (andi) Pairwise defeats are: D = U (4:4) U and D > O and V (7:1) (ian against) O > V (7:1) (ian against) U > F (6:2) (steve, ian against) D > F (5:3) (steve, ian, andi against) O > F (5:3) (steve, ian, andi against) V = F (4:4) A.6.2: Quorum is 2 (6.3.1), all options meet quorum. A.6.3: Option V does not strictly defeat default option F, so is eliminated A.6.5: Transitive defeats are: D : O, F (directly) U : O, F (directly) O : F (directly) F : A.6.6: Schwartz set is {D,U} A.6.8: There are no defeats in the Schwartz set, so the elector with the casting vote chooses which of these options wins. Per 6.3.2, the casting vote is held by the Chairman, who is currently Bdale. Per 6.3.1, the voting period expires either Feb 15th, or when the outcome is no longer in doubt. Not clear to me if that's now, or only after Bdale specifies a casting vote. Per 7.3, if there's any dispute about that, the secretary adjudicates that dispute. Cheers, aj
