That is 8 unanimous approval votes so it is passed.

8 votes yes, 1 no, 1 abstention


Didn't reach the required quorum of 10 votes for a majority based count so
not passed.

8 yes, 2 no and any number of abstentions would be passed.
8 yes, 3 no would not pass.

Guess that means the proponent needs to think carefully after an 8/2
result.
