>> Sure, imposing a word count limit for the candidates' statement could
simplify things by way of further standardization for voters who might need
such. But not doing that could not be equated to unfairness, IMHO. Fairness
or leveling the playing field here was to give every candidate the choice
to write as much as they want and see fit for a self-introduction
addressing a number of required items. Each candidate is empowered to
choose what she or he thinks would work best for them, so I fail to see
how's that a lack of fairness.

>> Totally agree with CPUN. These are static documents, not like in a
debate where candidates need to be given equal airtime. It might just turn
out that in this case, being concised and focused to the point be a plus
for a candidate in the mind of many voters. And possibly not much so for
many others. That will be the voter's choice and whatever the outcome, I
doubt it can be solidly argued that such outcome is the result of a biased
process due to the absence of word count limit for all contenders.
