[Lnc-business] Election of Membership Support Committee BALLOT 190214-1

[Alicia Mattson]

Attached is a copy of my ballot for the Membership Support Committee.

I noticed the instructions given on the voting page said we should only
vote for up to 9, but the motion adopted by the LNC contained no such
restriction, and I didn't see any such restriction in the summaries of the
Scottish STV method (though I did not read the actual Scotland law in all
of its glory), so I voted for more than 9 candidates.

It looks to me like most (but not all) other voters stuck to the limit of
9, which could result in their ballots being exhausted prematurely due to
the belief that they were limited to only 9.

If I am mistaken, and there is a rule limiting us to 9 votes, please direct
me to where that is in the Scottish STV definition.

-Alicia
