I have made a blog posting explaining what I did and why. I hope it helps clarify matters.
I am enjoying some of the speculation as to my methods, but really guys, you're overthinking it. All that is required is some planning and elbow grease. The Polls are open! Click here to vote for Trebor *-áMy Election Thread * Voter's Guide |

One thing I would like to clarify is that the mails to the Goons (and some other nullsec blocs) were accidental.
After I had compiled my list, I filtered it by estimated priority, and obviously people in Goonswarm aren't going to vote for me, so they and others ended up at the bottom of the list. But somehow they didn't get deleted.
If it's any consolation, this caused me to (a) waste several hours and (b) receive quite a large number of EVEmails from aggrieved goons. Some of them were quite eloquent and enlarged my vocabulary. The Polls are open! Click here to vote for Trebor *-áMy Election Thread * Voter's Guide |

I just don't like mass mails, or the possibility of this becoming an actual and widespread campaign tactic. I'm protesting against the method, not the person. Unfortunately, you happened to be the first one to do it. I'm perfectly fine with that -- and btw, direct outreach via evemail has been used in prior elections.
It is no secret that I think there are serious flaws in the CSM voting mechanic, and that discussions about changing it will be a priority for me if I get re-elected. If a reasonably fair election environment can be worked out that permits some sort of balanced direct outreach, then I'd have no problems with additional restrictions on evemailing by candidates.
BTW, Ender Black totally put the issue in the right perspective in this blog post.
