The Pre-elections for the 8th Council of Stellar Management (CSM) have closed. This is the first year we have done a pre-election like this and we are proud to say that far more candidates proved themselves qualified then we would have ever thought. To find out more about the candidates that qualified and their platforms, as well as details on the coming election, please click here.

Well it definitely looks like an interesting range of candidates.
Oh and First 
We all thought CSM 6 was a war crime with it's massive Null Presence
CSM7 topped it by selling out our Council to CCP, don't let it happen again. Vote or next time Incarna is your fault.

CCP Dolan, can we have Fon Revedhort's endorsement results, just to make things clear?
He was removed from final ballot but it will be fair to know the pre-election results, isn't it?

Looking forward to seeing what publicity you guys come up with for the actual election.
Would be great to see a decent turnout. |

Gratz Ripard Teg, Roc Weiler, Frans Bovens and the rest that got in, PsychoBitch 201 Endorsements 
Good luck making the final 14.
Chris Roberts - I think the CCP guys did a very nice job, what they do on eve online, but it is not the style of game the first person visceral-áWing Commander, Privateer, Freelancer style (was).

I bet that "would have the potential to create charged situations".
Have proved that CCP treats CSM as a joke.
And finally on par with Garmon.

Why does it matter? Everyone who endorsed them threw away their chance to go with an actual candidate.

It matters, because it's interesting to see actual number of voters who didn't care about PR disaster and propaganda and just voted for candidate program.

If any candidate who did not qualify for the final ballot wants to ask me about their endorsement count in the pre-election they can feel free to email me. They can do whatever they want with that number (provided it is the actual number), but beyond that I will not be posting the details of anyone who has been excluded from the final ballot.

Or they were voters who either shared his views, were completely ignorant of them, or were just trying to stir the pot.
The number isn't really going to tell you much of anything.

Keep in mind that many candidates announced when they had met the threshold. I qualified the first day, and then encouraged my supporters to use their endorsements to ensure that other reasonable candidates qualified as well.
Turnout in "primaries" is always less than in the main elections.

Or each year we have CSM members elected with mindless bloc votes, without knowing anything about their RL qualities or political background. It's ridiculous, I agree.
But candidate was removed after end of pre-election, and voters have right to know all results without censorship.
Otherwise you can't call this circus as "election".

Not really, no. This isn't your country's government, it's a gaming company who decided you should have a voice. If it wants to it can take away your voice. You don't really have any rights in the matter.

Please see my statement above about disclosure of endorsement numbers for those who did not qualify. This is also not the thread for discussing those who did not move on to the Final Ballot. If you wish to do so, you may do so in Jita Park Speakers Corner.

I thought it was a nice turnout, considering it's about endorsements, not the actual election.
Compare it to signature gathering you have to do when running for a national political office.
It's not about getting everyone to endorse/sign, it's about showing that you have a sufficient group of supporters. |

I concur. As Trebor correctly points out, a lot of us (including myself) let our supporters know when we passed the post and asked them to spread their endorsements to other candidates so that everyone could participate.
That said, obviously, I'm thrilled and humbled by the show of support for my candidacy here. Thanks very much, everyone!

Well CCP said, they kept the prelims small on purpose to not force too many non hardcore players to have to vote twice when it probably wasn't needed.
Plus they wanted to start the main advertising program after the prelim. So lets see how good their advertising is, then see how many voters we expect to show up.

The voting website requires a deployment from our web team to change. While I have repeatedly petitioned that we keep them in cages in the office and work them around the clock, my requests continue to fall on deaf ears.
The voting site should go up around 1200 GMT.

Congratulations to those who made the ballot!
To CCP Dolan,
Psychotic Monk is only showing "504" and not "504 Endorsements." Just a minor nitpick but wanted to let you know anyway :)
Good luck to everyone in the election! |

lolriverini and teg :D proves that any publicity is good publicity, or then people just think that voting for joke candidates is funny when they accidentally get through.
Oh and a bunch of random unknown nullseccers, I'm glad there are many good choices as well, and most importantly, all wh candidates got endorsed along with Mang and Malcanis.
