* Historical Context Note from the 2022 Secretary, Joe: I messed this up and grouped these two categories together even thought they have fundamentally different meanings. While we cannot know who intended to vote for no confidence vs who intended to vote for abstain, many members reported publicly that they had voted in this camp not due to a lack of confidence, but rather a lack of opinion. They thought either candidate would be a fine choice but didn't know either well enough to want to sway the results.
