status, to remain a qualified and voting member (as otherwise, charter restrict
to vote in the next election), it is better either to rephrase the text and
rule defined in the charter, or if it is still mandatory to have the abstention
option (for the reasons of a+b+c), it is proposed to also add the option for
Blank Vote; that mean you have used your right to vote but not against the
system or candidate, and still remain as a voting member.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div><font size="3" face="Times New Roman">
