 CS> I see no harm in it.

   I guess that you also see no harm in voting for self?

   It may be a specific Nordic country thing, but here we have what is called
Jantelagen:

   I've been running in many elections during my 30 years in Fidonet, but I
have never ever voted for myself. In one FTSC election I even lost with the
single vote that I could have given myself. This was one of the many times when
Black Hole Bob managed to get his RC gang to vote against any Z2 candidate.
