• Sad that 13 out of 40 communities didn't care to vote. As for me, I voted in the Wikimedia España sub-votation to determine our vote. I cared to read the information about all four candidates. Another twenty or so people in WMES did so, and we had a quite contested votation. So I wonder why one third of possible voting organizations didn't care about WMF Board. Would have they liked a non of above option? Do they have any problems with the Board? Any other reason? B25es (talk) 05:09, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
• Sorry, it's 41 counting Amical, our only thematic organisation. Tony (talk) 05:18, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

• It was not the communities who did not vote, but the affiliates. Anyway, I'm also interested in learning more about the reasons for that. I think it shows a disrespect for the candidates and the community not to take part in such an important ballot. I think this should have consequences for the affiliate organisations. They should be obliged to vote.--Aschmidt (talk) 13:45, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
