NO: 14
ABS: 1
Result: Option uk.transport.london wins AV and passes +12 (72) v status quo
Votetaker's Remarks
===================
There were 101 valid ballots, including one abstention. Despite the
relatively high turn-out, there was only one disallowed vote.
One ballot contained a single 'x' against an option instead of a
number. This was counted as a '1' for that option.
One ballot was received from news@<domain> and was returned with
a request that it should be re-submitted from a non-admin address
(a valid ballot was subsequently received).
One ballot was recieved from username news97d. I had mixed feelings
about this, but decided to allow it without requesting a re-submission.
Four ballots didn't include the name in the appropriate place on
the ballot paper. The name was extracted from the headers - note
that under the procedures recently published by UK-VOTING these
ballots would not be counted in future.
