Michael,
I do not understand that part either. Several other elections in
LimeSurvey seem to have that "feature", with comparatively many
incomplete responses. I had explicitly blocked partial responses: voters
had to choose 4 candidates. Yet it happened. I have no explanation for
how. May be it has to do with the system itself.
But it would be a mistake for us to focus on this aspect of the issue,
when the real problem seems to me why so few people felt compelled to
vote. Somehow the engagement wasn't there as it was in 2020 (my
impression).
I sent two reminders in total via LimeSurvey: one on Thursday and
another on Sunday. Only 27 people voted between the opening first
reminder on Thursday. Between then and Sunday, when I sent the second
reminder, only 21 more had voted. After the second reminder and until
the closing only 11 more voted. On Friday I also sent a message through
the lists. Yet few actively voted. Why? I do not know. I insisted enough
I believe. Then there is also a limit on how many reminders you can push
via email before wearing people's patience out.

While this is a low number, it is better than it seemed from the vote
totals at 40%. Of the remaining 60%, I don't quite understand how 23
incomplete ballots resulted in 3 votes but perhaps I misunderstood your
point.

See the summary in the elction Wiki. I see no anomaly, but I share the
impression that the participation was lower this time than in 2020.
* name and e-mail address for 153 eligible voters were loaded
* 5 e-mail addresses were invalid
* 2 voters explicitly declined to participate
* 59 registered voters submitted complete responses (i.e. chose 4
candidates out of 10)
* 87 registered voters either did not participate or submitted empty
or partial responses
o of these, 23 partial or incomplete votes were registered,
resulting in 3 definite votes for 3 different candidates

Thanks for all your work in managing the PSC election Hernán.
Can you tell me how many total people were eligible to vote and how many of
them voted? The totals published seem like a very small number.
Thanks
