I voted no. I believe transparency is more important than the fear of being attacked. It should be our collective responsibility to create a space where everyone can express their opinions without the need for anonymity. ---

No, there are grants that I have voted YES for and wish I didn’t, but I take accountability for that. Hiding behind anonymity might create distrust. ---

Voting no here. Transparency and taking ownership of your vote are key to making responsible voting choices, in my opinion. ---
