I've been tracking these stats since we converted from in-person to online voting since our major concern was making sure we didn't disenfranchise anyone while increasing the number of eligible (and active) participants. It fluctuates a bit over the years: 2024: 229/934: 24.5% 2023: 203/992: 20.5% 2022: 267/960: 27.8% 2021: 237/1012: 23.4% 2020: 235/955: 24.6% 2019: 174/?* (first online) 2018: 95/95 (last in person) -Kees *I can't find this year's data right now -- my brain is still half working after fighting covid this past week -- Kees Cook
