Hi,

in [1] JB listed his list of authorized voters for the "GA voters list updates"
vote.

This list does not correlate with the list Josh provided in [2].
Neither does this list of 51 people [1] correlate to the 54 authorized voters
(distinct email addresses) the CIVS system actually counted, see [3].

This can mean only one of two things, either some people on the list in [1] did receive more than one ballot, or JB failed to list all the authorized voters and ballots have been given to unknown people. Both possibilities are unacceptable
flaws for a democratic vote.

Neither of these happened. It was already explained what happened.


As the admin responsible of the votes it is my duty to have supervision of all polls and thus it is my duty to declare this vote null and void for the flaws
given above.

No, this is completely unacceptable.


This vote will be repeated from Sun 12th of November to Sunday 19th of November
so we don't have to move the following votes yet another time.

As others pointer out, not only would such a vote not give a different result if run with the list you shared in this email, as it's the same people + duplicate addresses, but a repeated vote knowing the result beforehand might affect people's choice, or outright have people not bother voting at all.

So again, this is not ok at all and it damages the credibility of the entire system.
