The *contents* will contain the "-candidate-3".  Not sure why the project would 
want that especially since you intend to rename the tag.  Also, when you rename 
the tag there's no way to tell from the proposal that's being voted on that 
this is what happened.

Restarting the vote is very common even for well established projects.  It's to 
be expected for podlings that are working out the kinks.  I wouldn't worry 
about it.
