Hello all. A rare email here from Granny Buttons (in regretful hibernation), writing strictly in a personal capacity.
I think you are mistaken in calling the low turnout of the CaRT elections 'A vote of no confidence'.
As a boat licence holder I didn't vote, and for me that is effectively a vote of confidence. I didn't vote, because I have no view and am happy with the situation. Thus it is effectively a vote of confidence.
See how it works? This is not apathy. It is contentment, which is another word for confidence.
