New Election? - OzChess

**hobsonbay player** · 12-24-2009, 05:41 PM

Given that LM has dropped out of race ,a new election should be called for
in my opinion .Many voters before hand should of been told prior to election about this, so its fair and transparency is followed . AO you may not of
realise this but l know your detractors will remind you of this , if they
have all ready . l'd give you benefit of doubt of this oversight because l
dont think it was deliberate attempt on your behalf to let it go unnoticed .

Okay, a new poll has been set up.

I reckon a new election is a waste of time. In the case where someone hadn't been put in, like Ninja it was fair to recall it, but if someone is taken out then its not as if any of the people still in the election are put to disadvantage

I agree to a large extent, but the argument is that people who voted for LMatheson would have cast that ballot for someone else if they had known he was dropping out.

In any event, I can guarantee that there will be no further new polls, even if another candidate decides to drop out.

Yeah this is fair enough but given a voter isn't restricted to one vote in the first place it's a bit of a technicality..
