Havent seen you in a while, welcome back.

We disagree. Given the information in his post its out there that he recieved 3 votes (he dosent say this directly, but why else would his close friends be angry?).

Given that a democratic process took place, yet the result of which wasnt honored (I am assuming someone was able to amass more then 3 votes) then certainly does need a mandate.

Clearly the one he has from the previous job holder isnt enough, otherwise he wouldnt have angry friends. The democratic engaging leadership style is how he can get his mandate, as clearly to me they believe he dosent deserve the job.
