It means it's hard to avoid a sentence like "As the > Deliberation Period is at an end, it's time to vote on GCDNNN" “Time to decide”? But I think it’s okay if we use the word “vote” occasionally; I would just prefer not overemphasizing it and giving a false impression, and I thought that its prominent use in the records could be one such case. Thanks for deliberating. :-) Ludo’.
