A vote can go two weeks. The reason could be a TB member is taking their time/doing some research, it can be because a TB member is traveling, it could be because a TB member is obstinate. It doesn't really matter.

The public announcement of whether a motion will pass (or fail) is made once a motion gets the required 6 votes (or doesn't). Quite frankly there's nothing that important that going the entire 2 weeks on voting marks the end of the FT world.

This is a mountain being made out of a molehill.

Cheers.
