The CT make the vote dependent upon being able to contribute. This gives the 
sysadmins the power to decide who is a potential voter and who isn't. We are 
asked to trust the sysadmins never to deactivate accounts in order to change 
the group of active voters. The sysadmins underline this request for trust by 
deactivating all accounts of people who have not yet made up their mind.
