Perhaps the voting reminders should be sent individually instead of to the

I suppose we could survey all the contributors that didn't vote...

We noticed that you did not vote in the FESCO elections. Was that because...

[ ] I didn't have an opinion on the candidates
[ ] I didn't notice the call for votes
[ ] I don't like *any* of the candidates
[ ] I was on vacation
[ ] I've stopped working on Fedora
