[STDS-802-16] P802.16e/D6 Sponsor Recirc Ballot: Voting Summary
I've received the P802.16e/D6 ballot recirc results from the IEEE-SA
Balloting Center. They report:
89 Approve
46 Disapprove
135 votes = 65% affirmative
In addition, two eligible voters cast unusable Approve votes because
they used the wrong IEEE membership number. One had not voted
previously; the other is a Disapprove voter. If we can resolve those
errors, then the result will be:
91 Approve
45 Disapprove
136 votes = 67% affirmative
Three other people told me, right after the ballot closed, that
they'd meant to switch their vote to Approve, but they failed to. If
we include those, we get:
94 Approve
42 Disapprove
136 votes = 69% affirmative
In order to make the 75% minimum, we need 8 more people to flip to
Approve. We should expect that, based on comment resolution next
week, we can move toward that goal.
