Lynx-lynx, insisting that voters have read both could end up with very few votes being cast. These are not exactly books that tend attract the same sort of readers (yes, I know some of us are omnivores, but that doesn't apply to everyone).
Of course the (lack of) relevance of such votes when you haven't met all the candidates becomes all the more blatant when there are just two, but really it's no different from when there were twenty (or whatever).
Paul, I didn't think a run-off was necessary; I had no problem whatsoever with you, as effective chairman of this meeting, casting the deciding vote. Of course I may be seen as biased here, since my nomination had won before you changed your mind. ... But then I'm not that concerned about absolute here, I don't think any run-off votes are needed, not even with the three-way tie. Having a top-dog (how many metaphors am I up to?) in this seems a bit pointless.
