I have an issue with the icon for another reason, it is allowing some candidates a way to target campaigning. I received a PM (the second from one candidate) in the last two days that started wtih "I see you have not voted".

I had already discussed the PM issue with Randay (when I got the first pm from this candidate) and was cool with this being addressed next year, but was re-annoyed by it all, when I was "targetted" because I didnt yet have the icon.

It is no ones business if I have voted or not and I dont appreciate the extra pressure tactics of some candidates who are trolling to see who has the icon and who doesnt.

Randy, please reconsider this for next year.
