I would discourage this. Unless you really don't have an opinion, why not vote for your preferred candidates? If you don't have a preference and you don't like any of them, I can understand.
But I do have an opinion. The positions of all the candidates seem to be essentially identical, "we love Wikipedia and NPOV". I see no dramatic proposals on the topics of copyright, promotion, hardware or managing growth. The candidates all propose to increase community input to the board, but don't say exactly how they will do this. They all talk about guiding the board, but offer no suggestions as to what direction they will guide it in. Nobody, in particular, has expressed an opinion on the Chinese Wikinews issue.
With such deficient candidates on the ballot, and with a little patience, maybe you can wait until the next election to declare your candidacy. :-)
