Yeah, I'm worried about the sock-puppet accusations too. :\ Even if LJ cracked down hard on it behind the scenes, it makes the whole election shaky unless we're told exactly what's going on and how it's being handled. Ignoring it just makes everything worse.
As far as "a large proportion", I'm not sure about that. I've seen links to people saying they did it, but without having the numbers on hand I tend to doubt it. Almost everyone has multiple accounts, but the ones I saw claimed things like 70, and that's... insane. There can't be more than a handful of people with those numbers. But still... It's all fishy and sad, no matter how you spin it.
I think I re-counted my position on the Abuse Team thing somewhere in a post or comment... (Sweatdrop) But I took that as a good thing, since it means she's already familiar with things. (shrug) Still, done is done. I just wish LJ would address the concerns and I know they won't. *sigh* Which is why we need an Advisory Board, isn't it?
