>> Hi all,
>> One way to resolve a draw is to give one person  0.5 or 1.5 of a vote.
>> I previously suggested I step back from voting due to time constraints, but based on being approached to reconsider, I suggest that maybe I could fill a vote breaker role.

>> That way, my vote would only count if there were a tie, and it would guarantee a winner.
