Thanks, Georg. For the past two elections, I relied on precedent for setting up the poll. I realize that doing "what we did before" is not necessarily a good justification, but it's what I had to go on when I unexpectedly became the interim PM in June, 2018.
Note that the election results are always verified by others before I announce them. For this year's election, I had Jim Baker and Bin Hu confirm the results. I also keep a screenshot of the results page in case there is ever any question. That being said, I think it's worth considering whether improvements can be made so that the process is more transparent.
