Perhaps, not so much malaise as a message to the Patriarchs? I decided not to vote because I felt that to vote for either of them would be to vote for the demise of our Society at this time. Since Radha is the incumbent anyway, and would have gotten most of the Indian and therefore most of the vote anyway, she would have remained as president and I would not have to vote for a lesser person. Since I am in the US, and was urged to vote for Algeo I was in a quandary, so I decided not to cast a vote. I am a chicken-theosophist?

Subject: Theos-World TS Election Results - USA
Anton took the trouble of reporting the breakdown of the election results so
that we do not have to wait for the print media to report them. (I wish the
Section took the initiative to do it.)
What is surprising is that in USA, less than 50% of eligible members voted
and this seems to show the general malaise in the country since even in the
Presidential elections very low percentage of the voters take the trouble to
vote.
Just wanted to point out the fact.
U.S.A.
Eligible Voters - 2,757
Total Voted - 1,234
Algeo - 968
Radha - 253
Invalid - 13
Any comments?
