I think ais523 and I were pondering whether:
1. I announce that the voters are set A;
2. The voters are actually set B; HOWEVER
3. At the time of distribution, Set A and Set B are equivalent;
means the voting announcement is still accurate.
Of particular importance to this argument is this phrase in R107:
"In
particular, an explicit list of the eligible voters is
always sufficient for this purpose."
Such a list, without qualification, is "always sufficient" even if
people can drop off of it later.
