The "class" of eligible voters may (or may not) be "all current
players and all persons who register during the voting period."  There
is nothing in the above clause preventing this interpretation.  The
act of registration (which makes a person into an eligble
voter) might be seen as specifically "permitting" a change during
a voting period.

I note that no proposal distribution recently has had a list
or description, perhaps listing a proposal as "O" or "D" is sufficient
in many circumstances to  enable public agreement, but not in this case.  

Your opinion may be right (I'm not convinced either way), but I don't
think your above argument supports it as strongly as you think.
