Brian's comments sound a lot like those that I made to another email group that I was once part of - email may be awesome for communication, but it is a truly horrible avenue for conducting parliamentary business of any sort, the least of which are elections and voting. If there were money involved, some parties could possibly be sued.

I just saw the Fedora election results, and was surprised to learn there
had been an election. After some digging I figured out what happened.
Robyn sends her announce emails to: announce@, devel-announce@,
test-announce@
I saw the nomination email and the election results email, but no
announcement of the elections being open.
This is because Ankur Sinha didn't send the announcement to the same set
of lists. I am apparently not on announce, only on devel-announce
Emails like this should see a wide distribution, at the *least* they
should be sent to the same set of lists that the other related emails
are sent to. I suspect that the election turnout would have been greater
if this had happened.
