Hi. Except there is NO vote option against in any form. It’s just 3 times slightly modified “yes” pretending we have choice and way to affect resolution.

In that scenario, only 50 members would be voting and 950 would be abstaining from the vote. So 26 would be the target needed for a resolution to achieve a majority and pass.
The Articles of Association provide more details on how the voting works, but they do note that "Abstentions and invalid votes shall be considered as not having been cast. All votes, both valid and invalid, and all abstentions shall be recorded in the minutes."
best recipe on how to make an unwanted decision pass. Good game, folks.
Come on, do we really need to ask the RIPE NCC to organize a session “Voting For Dummies”?
You have three options during a vote:
- Yes - No - I don’t care
If there are:
- 26 votes in favor - 24 votes against - 950 abstentions
Then:
- 26 people care and want the resolution to pass - 24 people care and don’t want the resolution to pass - 950 people say “I don’t care”
And the resolution passes.
It’s not rocket science.
