That's true. This is especially misleading because the candidates start at different times and therefore are always going to collect different numbers of endorsements. It's turning into a very odd kind of popularity contest.
Perhaps continue to require a minimum of 12 and cap them at 30 next time?

I would also like to comment that like it is now with the endorsements the look a lot like a vote. A candidate needs to get 12 users to support there candidacy.
Currently the record is 65.
When a candidate has his 12 users for support, or a few more if there where a dispute about some votes, then the endorsement could be closed and that candidate labeled as confirmed for the actual vote. Like it now you have two votes: a public one and a private one.
