I guess it will be difficult to set rules for voting, as everyone who is logged in, can vote. There can be several reasons for not joining in in the discussion.
I know I voted once or twice in the past, in the hope "my book" would be chosen and I would read it, without participating in the discussion for whatever reason I thought valid at the time. But I enjoyed the discussion of the book all the same.
Perhaps there can be an appeal of some sort, or an invitation/explanation to vote, but also participate in the discussion at the beginning of each poll. The bookclub wants to be accessible, I think, but at the same time have some serious quality reading.
