Here's the numbers for the last election.

107 Voters

That sounds very little. Aren't we more like at least four times as
many packagers alone? And weren't there even non-packagers admitted to
vote? QA/doc/managment (I hope Max was allowed to vote :) etc?

I don't know how many accounts were entitled to vote in total, but we
probably only had 20-25% of people caring to vote, which looks
bad [1]. How can we improve this mark?

[1] Some people will use the argument "everyone was happy, so no one
    went voting", but that's not a valid argument. If people are happy
    the least they could do is click on a web voting application to
    confirm their happyiness (which BTW is really a painless effort,
    credits to the authors of it, I think this was mainly Toshio).
Its a sad thing to say but...

"Most people were american, so no one went voting"

I could be wrong, but I bet apathy played a roll in low voter turnout. Or a lack of knowledge about the candidates.
