You can stand for election as often as you like.

would it be ok for me to post a simplified candidate list?

also, this might be clarified >
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/talkb...vel-sites.html
lots of FTers have blogs for example
or the "travel" aspect may be unrelated to FT themes

Do you mean simply a list of their handles, or something more? If a list of their handles, that could be useful. I'd likely copy it into the debate forum.

I wish all the candidates the very best luck in the election. I won't be asking any questions but will be casting my vote(s) in good time.

Fresh blood and new ideas can only help FT.

I respectfully submit that in many cases the opposite of the qualities you list are what FT needs right now.

Could we expect to have the number of votes for all runners this time?

If not, why should this be secret? I havent heard of secret results in any democratic election.

Usually the numbers are posted.

I think '09 might have been an exception, but not due to Randy wanting to keep things 'secret', but probably just Randy being Randy (ie, he got a lot of PMs, emails, etc, was probably on his "to-do" list & didn't get around to it).

No black helicopters - really.

Cheers.
