I think a suggestion was made to alter the current format. So then the committee sought further info to see If this was a popular opinion. This was the vote.
It's probably a bit strong to say the others who were happy where overlooked as the vote was asking for their opinions. I can see there bring a sub issue if people didn't know about the vote. As then it would seem they've been overlooked. But I don't think that was anyone's intentions?!
A complaint or a suggestion (as long as reasonable) should bear grounds for the committee to look into it. Shows the committee will listen to its people.
But maybe a bigger vote is needed. Like maybe a talk before racing this evening? Followed by a show of hands? Again can't guarantee that'll everyone will be present but it should still give a percentage of votes. People who don't show could likely vote either way after all. So it's not favouritising either decision. Unless someone can think of another way that's gets to more people?
