I did not know these questions were allowed here. It's certainly not about Ubuntu and not specific to askubuntu. I believe meta SE would have been s better place. But it's a good question though.

What strikes me is that only about 8 percent of the eligible voters actually has cast a vote. Is the involvement of the users really that low? By all means moderators are the people that keep the site running in a certain sense, so this election is important to participate in. Congratulations to the new moderators.
