Stan,

The person actually apologized for voting yes.  Here are his comments to me
(name withheld):


I voted 'yes' but know if my vote was included in the numbers because of the
lateness of my sending the card back.  I didn't receive the info until 3
days before it was due back so I quickly glanced at the info, marked the
card, and sent it back.  I didn't read the info received because of the time
frame.  I also suspect that a number of people, those that voted "yes", did
not read it and/or decipher the info to really understand what they were
agreeing/disagreeing to.  Sometimes that lawyer mumbo-jumbo lingo gets your
head spinning and you lose the original point of the amendment.

Ahh...one person who either couldn't read, or couldn't work out the
implications of what they read.  The only other conspiracy-free
alternative is to assume that they don't care about the electoral
process ... because they voted for a known faulty bylaw, hoping
that it would be corrected later.  If a law is faulty, it's your duty to
vote against it ... and perhaps help to get a non-faulty one on the ballot.
(The conspiracy theory is that the "yes" voter was fully aware of the
flaw, and hoped to benefit from it somehow.   :) for the humor impaired)
