The "vote" was mostly a load of crap. But I do have one issue: is if they had liked the Site Governance page and therefore seen updates from that page; if one of their friends voted and clicked a box to send an update to their profile’s news feed; or if they happened to notice a promo for the vote that was mixed in with the ads on the right side of the page… I never saw a promo, but that’s because I ignore the small ads and other items on the far right. I suspect most people do. I was notified via a massive box at the top of my news feed - one that spanned the whole feed and had a big call to action.
