I am not surprised that so few voted. Can anyone think of a way
to encourage more candidates?
For comparison, last year we had 253 registered voters and 142 valid
ballots. So turnout has only declined from 56% to 49%, which is not
that big a change. The bigger change is that the electorate has shrunk
by 11% in one year.
In 2015 we had 273 registered voters and 149 valid ballots, so 55%
participation.
If anyone wants to investigate further back, you can check the June
archives on [1].
