The application uses 'approval voting'[1]. So, there is a little value in voting even when there are the same number of candidates as seats. For example, someone could get zero votes and not earn a seat. It would also rank the candidates by approval, although that doesn't matter here since ranking has no other effect. Last election it did, since the three lowest ranked seats are the ones up for election currently. - Karsten [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approval_voting -- Karsten Wade, Developer Community Mgr.
