Give them a chance to explain the voting system. I generally agree, but I'll give them a little bit more leeway as I'm not paranoid...! They have in the original PM, and in the one they sent to Cav!! They've obviously borrowed heavily from the Zimbabwean electoral model!!

It worked on FW when 2 mods were selected. You understand psephology don't you Cav? If you want two votes for two candidates, you can't do that with a poll that only allows one vote. It means the second preferences (effectively) aren't counted. In a straight first-past-the-post contest then it would skew the results. For example, if you and I both stood, and people wanted both of us, we would both get only half as many votes as we would under a system that allowed two votes for the two positions. Stop me if that's of no interest! ;D
