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].
