Greetings,

I didn't test it, but made the commit. What can go wrong? :) Also, I'm not sure 
how often the wiki pulls from SVN. 

And people have expressed different interpretations of the voting RFC regarding 
"who can vote" so I suspect this overall topic will persist.... However, the 
above 
changes have been made that hopefully fixes this bug.

Regards,
Philip
