I am not sure that would be the best way to choose, given that the nomination process can really influence whether or not someone wants to vote. Last year doesn't seem to be indicative of this year's preferences, so we would want to wait until the Dec vote to decide.

Here are the # of votes by month for 2013 and so far in 2014
Code:
2013 2014
Jan 45 19
Feb 63 27
Mar 39 28
Apr 41 35
May 37 30
Jun 49
Jul 41
Aug 48
Sep 52
Oct 34
Nov 40
Dec 39
The median is 41 for last year, so anything below that would be dropped (Mar, May, Oct, Nov, Dec). And some of those are very close and all of them except for October are more than any so far this year. October is only 1 vote below the highest vote tally for this year.
Seems like a lot of people have quit participating. Last year we averaged 44/vote, this year we are averaging under 28/vote.
