I checked a few of the WMF admin staff who have been employed more than a year, and many dont look likely to reach the 300 threshold, even with wikitech and foundation wikis included.
An interesting question, I think, is /whether/ anyone from the Foundation ever voted that would not otherwise have had sufferage from the edits requirement?
Pretty sure they have, Marc. It's difficult to tell for certain, because some of the applicable wikis where people might be posting are not included in the SUL grouping (for example, FDC wiki or other non-public wikis, Foundation wiki, etc).
It should be 'quite easy' to confirm wrt staff by looking for '(WMF)' and 'office.wikimedia.org' in the raw data, and filtering out any developers with merged changesets.

This is not easy for volunteers because some of the staff usernames are not SUL accounts, dont have links to personal accounts, and userpages dont include names, so sorry for any mistakes made in the following.
MRay (WMF) - no SUL account, or account by that name on meta or wmfwiki - 'ray' doesnt appear on wmf:Staff
GGrossmeier_(WMF) - no SUL account, but an account by that name does exist on wmfiwki, and belongs to dev Greg Grossmeier, but didnt have merged gerrit patches for that period AFAICS. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/owner:%22Greg+Grossmeier+%253Cgreg%2540wi...
Ldavis (WMF) - SUL account, easily meets community voting criteria
LVilla (WMF) - SUL account with a link to personal account 'user:LuisVilla', which from a quick count (I didnt use the eligibility checker tool) to have met either criteria of the 200 total edits or 20 recent edits.
Jorm (WMF) - didnt check; quite certain they were eligible one way or another.
Sbouterse (WMF), now Siko (WMF), and Seeeko - SUL accounts, achieved the community voting criteria with both staff and personal account. woot!
JMathewson (WMF) - SUL account, easily meets community voting criteria
KLove (WMF) - SUL account, may have amassed 200 edits across all projects with a few months of employment (I didnt use the eligibility checker tool to confirm this). borderline case; but had she known that she needed a few more edits to be eligible, my guess is she would have done the necessary edits with ease in order to qualify.
Gyoung - not a SUL account, but does have SUL accounts GYoung_(WMF) and GayleKaren, but between them doesnt appear to have met the criteria for the 2013 election, but will easily meet the criteria for the 2015 election.
Lcarr - not a SUL account, but lots of merged patches. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/owner:%22Lcarr+%253Cgeekgirl%2540gmail.co...
The other exception is for WMF board members; the easiest way to check those is by username.
While scanning the list I saw a few chapter people who voted from [country].wikimedia.org , so it would also be worth checking those to see if they were also eligible on content wikis. If chapterwikis are included in the eligibility counts, then foundationwiki and wikitech (and other WMF public wikis) should also be counted.
