Wow, I now understand how the poll became possible in this case: so it is indeed about a poll to the FESCo election jandemaus referred to.
I am sorry @theprogram , but you used your privileges to intentionally bypass a rule that is there intentionally. No discussion, no involvement of others, you decided on your own the rule is not worth to be exercised. Please revert your action asap.
If you reject or again decide without consulting others to exploit your privileges to temporarily add others to any group with the sole purpose to enable them to contribute to FESCo or other elections, I will report it → this is not intended but a type of abuse of privileges. If you disagree with rules, bring them to discussion or to attention of the Council or whatever committee is responsible, but don’t make these decisions on your own.
