[Massimo DiPierro]

I see… I was not aware of this. Browsing the pages I now see there are two elections:

https://vote.python.org/init/default/results/45
https://vote.python.org/init/default/results/46

Same candidates and different ballots. I did not know about this. It is a weird way to use the system.
I added up the numbers and now I agree with your results with the caveat below. 

Thanks for the clarification. :-)

Caveat: I checked the database and I found 8 people were able to vote for both instances: ['katie.fulton at gmail.com', 'kirby.urner at gmail.com', 'diana.joan.clarke at gmail.com', 'lynn at lynnroot.com', 'carl at oddbird.net', 'jeff at elkner.net', 'amauryfa at gmail.com', 'facundo at taniquetil.com.ar’]

I am sure this was a honest mistake but please this should not happen again. 8 people with two ballots could have made a lot of difference. I trust they realized they received two ballot and they voted for only one of them.

Can we please use the system the way it is intended next time?

Massimo

The page with the results is public and it is here: https://vote.python.org/init/default/results/46 The voted ballots are also public and posted here: https://vote.python.org/init/default/ballots/46 The links should be in your ballot receipt. If you have voted, you know which one is your ballot from the code but keep that to yourself: they are anonymous.
