  One might also say that Ward sabotaged the effort by his threats to
  the RCs as to what would happen if they did not vote.  Or by any one
  else who raised objections to the procedure.

  In fact, what really happened was that in spite of those negative
  contributions a vote was collected, a majority of those voting were in
  favor of a change in policy, but not enough of the RCs voted for
  change to meet the requirement of a majority of ALL RCs -- which is
  the primary thing that the new policy was attempting to change.

  I also believe that more RCs voted that had ever voted on any previous
  attempt at a policy change -- but it was not enough.
