I am very pleased with the wide range of candidates that will be running in the upcoming elections.
Before I mention my personal favorites, I would like to congratulate each and every candidate for their bold decision to take part in this project.
My personal favorites, sorted alphabetically
(I hope we get more than one vote):
Dymetrie
Interesting and uncomprimising candidate for the empire population.
Since the EVE population has a high percentage of empire players it would make sense to see someone like him as part of the CSM.
Hardin
Experienced 0.0 player. Has some roleplay experience as well. Sympathetic, humble and well spoken. Part of the CVA alliance, an alliance which in my assessment is one of the most repsected alliances in 0.0. CVA has a NRDS policy (not red - do not shoot) yet managed to survive in the harsh conditions of 0.0 unlike others who tried a similar approach. This shows a practical ability to successfully realize bold ideas. He might well be the prime choice for most 0.0 inhabitants.
Jade Constantine
The wordy philosopher. Manages to polarize. Widely repsected in the 0.0 community.
Juwi Kotch
That is an interesting candidate. Has experienced a somewhat bumpy start into the universe of EVE, yet stuck with it and worked his way up. Understands both carebear and pvp interests.
Omber Zombie
The allrounder. Likes to try out all aspects of EVE and master them. Was part of the legendary mOo corporation (pirates). Taught new players as an instructor in the EVE-University. Has explored the EVE-stock market. His wealth of experience would surely prove highly valuable for the CSM.
Serenity Steele
The analayser. Dry and to the point. Effective, clear, quality.
Runs a wonderfull website with 0.0 alliance statistics and provides travelers with EVE maps.
TornSoul
Part of BIG corporation. Runs the BIG lottery. Has much experience with EVE and has shown good leadership skills. An interesting persona.
Vox Pop
A concept of a direct democracy which allows the community to vote on positions taken. These positions are then passed onto CCP. I am not sure how well this will work, but it is definatly an interesting idea.

Im voting for No-one as i cant see the point of a stellar council. After-all they cant make decisions just 'Suggestion'
A council does not give orders, but it helps decision makers to make good decisions.
I am sure you will agree that well informed decisions are usually better than uninformed ones.

And by the way it works its very likely that just the Alliance bigwigs will get the first seats as they have a big block of voters from day 1.
If the large population in empire would not vote, then yes, this would be probably true. But keep in mind that the majority of EVE players are based in empire.
Since you are concerned that the empire population might be underrepresented, why not spread the word amongst empire players to vote. That way the empire population will have its voice in the CSM.
