Good thing you didn't get your voting token then if you didn't understand what you're voting on ;-)
You seem to be suggesting that people should spend time researching a question before voting on it. :eek:
Ridiculous - that's not how we got Brexit done!

Probably, a lot like me did not get any ballot papers, was it by post or by e-mail I guess they could have been in my e-mail junk?

Ballots were sent by email. We circulated info about the ballot and what to do if you didn't receive a ballot to all club secretaries to distribute to their members, on here, on our website, on social media, and through word of mouth.

But how many people actually got their papers I wonder, was request read receipt turned on?

Read receipts aren't handled well by many email clients, so they're not often used. You can use tracking pixels to collect data like this, but we didn't think it appropriate to be collecting (without the consent of the recipient) your IP address, what device you're using, your rough location, when you viewed the email etc. particularly for an anonymous ballot.

Yeh, if I got the actual ballot I would have looked it up.

Prob in spam folder etc, not your fault. I was just wondering if that's why you only got 10% turn out and wondering if you did keep any statistics, which is no.

Having now had a brief look at what we are voting on, it's really not very interesting is it? It seems a lot of people don't seem to understand what the actual change was looking at https://ukcaving.com/board/index.php?topic=28674.0. Maybe this needs to be addressed. Anyway not having a go, just explaining why it might be 10% turn out.

So yeh prob best I did not vote anyway, unless I was actually in the meetings to understand what's being asked but I avoid all committee meetings like the plague. Rather go caving lol.
