Hey Tom, Thanks for the clarification.
In my opinion, we ought to clarify timelines for announcement and publishing of data as part of the official policies. I'm okay with publishing results on the following business day after an election, but if we're going to do that, it should be made clear that is the plan. I'm sure the candidates have been sweating it this entire weekend, wondering what's going on. :) Regards, Mike On Sun, Jun 17, 2012 at 3:09 PM, Tom Perrine <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Mike, > > We'll have results posted on Monday.
