[Euro-board] URGENT: Current EURALO vote

[Roberto Gaetano]

Hi.
I don’t have strong feelings about Q1, so I abstain.
However, in case we restart, I find “abstain” more appropriate than “none of the above” which would have a negative characterization that does not necessarily match with the voters’ intention - in short, I might like both candidates but cannot decide, or be one of the candidates and not want to vote for myself, or whatever, while “none of the above” would mean that I do not like any of the candidates.
