[Lnc-business] Email Ballot 2018-12: INDEPENDENT AUDIT OF AT-LARGE VOTE RESULTS

Since these results include a vote change during the final day, I do think
these results need to be footnoted as follows:

* Since the published ending time of the ballot resulted in a voting period
which exceeded 8 days, Ms. Mattson had expressed a belief that the end date
should be changed from 7/19/18 to 7/18/18.  During this final day of voting
which is disputed, Mr. Redpath changed his vote from "no" to "yes".  These
reported results reflect the changed vote during the disputed time period,
but the outcome of the vote is not impacted by the question of how to
report this one vote.

If they're footnoted, given that it doesn't impact the result, I won't feel
a need to raise a point of order about the reported results and ask the LNC
to make a decision on how to report that vote change.
