From your email: 1. isn't a good reason,
I'm aware of that, I'm pretty sure I added a ";-)" to make that clear.
2. if someone did resign,
what difference would knowing the tallies actually make? Bear in mind
that only the 5 of us made the 50% mark.
If the 6th person only missed out by one or two votes then it would be
best to just appoint them to the empty seat. If they missed out by a
very large margin, then that might be taken as a "none of the above"
vote by the community and someone that didn't stand would be
appointed.
3. I would hope that people
would recognize that their votes at AGMs matter anyway, regardless of
the tallies from this election.
But if people won by an enormous margin, an individual's vote really
doesn't matter, since it can't change anything. Compare General
Election turnouts by constituency against the incumbant's margin in
the last election, I'm pretty sure you'll see a sizeable correlation.
4. Is there anything we could learn
from the counts that we wouldn't figure out anyway?
Well, yes, how people voted.
