Participating in a democratic process is an implicit endorsement of it, whatever the final results. It would be very strange for people who have participated in this process to fight after the result. The whole point is to settle an issue.
Now, maybe external actors will use the public votes to harass participants. There's lots of idiots out there. Maybe the full vote results should have been communicated only to the participants.

- em-bee 6y agothis was brought up in the discussion before the vote, the argument against it was that there was only a provision for keeping the election secret, but not votes on resolutions. i did have the impression that an exception to making the votes public would be made, but i just found the actual vote list, so that didn't happen.
