GUFF

2003 Voting Results

GUFF is the Get Up-and-over Fan Fund or the Going Under Fan Fund, depending on which way you're going.

Pat McMurray won the 2003-4 ballot to bring a fan from Europe to Australasia. Pat attended Continuum in Melbourne, 11-14 June 2004 (http://www.continuum.org.au/) and visited fans in several Australian cities during his trip.

Here's the announcement from Paul Kincaid, GUFF UK administrator:

-------

Pat McMurray wins in one of the tightest races imaginable. At one point, we actually thought we had a dead heat on our hands.

The full voting figures are:

Doug Bell - UK: 25 Australia: 8 Total: 33
Pat McMurray - UK: 22 Australia: 13 Total: 35
No Preference - UK: 6 Australia: 2 Total: 8

None of those who voted No Preference gave a second preference (logically enough), so redistributing these votes made no difference to the result.

-------

Note: The two Australian "no preference" votes are Eric's and Jean's. As administrators, we felt that we should not vote for either candidate.
